FAQs

O Gauge or OO Gauge: Which is bigger?

O Gauge is larger than OO Gauge, with a scale of 1:43.5 compared to OO’s 1:76.2. This means O Gauge models are nearly twice the size, offering incredible detail but requiring more space. OO Gauge is the most popular scale in the UK, ideal for compact layouts while still delivering realism. Whether you prefer the grandeur of O Gauge or the versatility of OO Gauge, both offer unique opportunities for model railway enthusiasts.

What is an OO gauge model railway?

OO gauge, also known as OO scale (or 00 gauge/00 scale), is the leading standard gauge for model railways in the United Kingdom. Outside the UK, it is rarely used. As a 4 mm-scale standard (4 mm to 1 ft or 1:76.2), it stands out as the only one widely produced and sold by major manufacturers.

Can OO Scale Trains Run on HO Scale Track?

OO scale trains are fully compatible with HO scale track since both use the same 16.5mm gauge. This means you can seamlessly run OO scale trains on HO layouts. Many rolling stock items also come with NEM coupling pockets, allowing you to mix British and European rolling stock on a single layout by swapping the couplings. It's a great way to create diverse and dynamic model railway setups!
