Hobby Trains
Is there a standard size for Model Trains?
Sine I was a kid I wanted to collect model trains. Recently my girlfriend bought me a Model Train for my birthday. I've seen different sizes at hobby shops and I was wondering if there is a "popular" in size. I do not care for more big (no offense to those who do) and do not want "small" trains ... Is the "NH" a common size? My intention is to build monumentous one of the train "people" seen in exhibitions. I do not want to spend years collecting the sizes that can difficult to follow. Thank you all for answerting. This has been useful reeeeeealllly. YES, it is worth 10
HO is the most popular size with about two thirds of dedicated amateurs in that scale. A typical rail car is approximately 6.8 "long on this scale N scale is the most votes with 20% of the fans to the choice of this size typically train -. car is approximately 3 4 "long time on this scale. The other scales are not as popular.
