Welcome
to the Sn3 Page."Sn3"
indicates we are modeling in S-scale
which in North America is a ratio
of 1 to 64 or 1:64 or 1 foot in
the model equals 64 feet in the
real world. S-scale trains run on
.883 inches track. Standard gauge
track in the real world is 4ft 8.5
inches between the rails. The second
letter, "n" indicates
that instead of standard gauge we
are modeling narrow gauge. This
could be anything from 18 inches
between the rails to 42 inches between
the rails."3" indicates
that in fact we are modeling in
O-scale railroads that ran on track
which was 3 feet between the rails.
