 | | Originally and correctly, G ''scale'' is the use of 45mm gauge track, as used in standard gauge I scale (NEM 010), aka 3/8" scale (NMRA S-1), for modelling metre gauge narrow gauge railways, using the correct scale of 1:22.5. |
 | | N scale uses 9 mm gauge track, and a scale of 1:160 worldwide, except for the United Kingdom where a scale of is 1:148 is used because of the problems early on in fitting mechanisms into smaller British trains. |
 | | Unlike other scales and gauges, which were de facto standards at best, within two years N scale defined the gauge, voltage, and polarity of track, as well as the height and type of couplers. |
