Scales and Eras

N scale

Size comparison: the same locomotive in H0, TT, N and Z

N (1:160, gauge 9 mm) is the second most popular scale: about half the size of H0 — the same layout fits on roughly a quarter of the area. Ideal for long trains, wide scenery and apartment-sized layouts. Track systems include Minitrix, Fleischmann Piccolo, Arnold, Kato Unitrack and Peco.
