Creation of entry for this Gauge / Scale of model railways
'''N Gauge'''<br />
The second smallest scale of model railway available, sometimes also referred to as "N Scale", which is becoming increasingly popular due to people realising how you can fit so much more model railway (than say with the more popular OO/HO gauge / scale) into such a small amount of space (as little as 5ft x 2ft for a double track layout).<br />
There are a few variations of it, all running on 9mm (0.35433 inch) gauge track, including:<br />
European / American N gauge (1:160 ratio, 1.9mm = 1ft)<br />
European Finescale N gauge (as above)<br />
Japanese N gauge (1:150 ratio, 2.03mm = 1ft)<br />
British N gauge (1:148 ratio, 2 1/16mm = 1ft)<br /><br />
