    16.5 mm ( 0.65 in) Prototype gauge. Standard gauge. HO or H0 is a rail transport modelling scale using a 1:87 scale (3.5 mm to 1 foot). It is the most popular scale of model railway in the world. [ 1][ 2] The rails are spaced 16.5 millimetres (0.650 in) apart for modelling 1,435 mm ( 4 ft 81⁄2 in) standard gauge tracks and trains in HO.

    (11) Diamond (4.5 pt, 1.5875 mm). Fonts originally consisted of a set of moveable type letterpunches purchased from a type foundry . As early as 1600, the sizes of these types—their "bodies" [ 1 ] —acquired traditional names in English, French, German, and Dutch, usually from their principal early uses. [ 2 ]

    1:32 is a useful scale for scratch modelling or railways. As well as standard gauge gauge 1 using 45 mm / 1.772 in track, narrow gauge modellers use 0 gauge ( 32 mm / 1.26 in) track for 42", 1m and 36" prototype gauges. Also H0/00 track at 16.5 mm is used to represent models of 20 in / 508 mm gauge railways. Today, 1:32 is associated with slot ...
