Gone Large Scale...for good...I think.

Hey Matt

Is your A/F stuff HO or S, I might be interested if its the old S gauge stuff with the pointy couplers.

Later Vic

No, they are very different.

On2, On30, and On3 are all O scale: 1/4"=1’-0" but the track gauges are very different

Sn3 and On30 both use HO guage 16mm track BUT On30 is 1/4" scale, Sn3 is 3/16" scale. You see, a bit of difference scale wise.

On2 track is all handlaid as I dont know of any maker of 1/2" or 13mm track.

On30 uses 16mm HO track and there are specific makers of On30 scale track, Peco being the biggest. Micro-Engineering another.

On3 uses 3/4"or 19mm guage track and also has several suppliers.

Sn3 also has suppliers of ready made track but most use commercial HO rails and switch kits on handlaid track.
