What is OO-9 Scale?

OO9 is the ultimate space-saver amongst the mainstream ready to-run scales. It is rendered at the 176 scale of standard OO (4mm/ foot), but runs on 9mm gauge track, reflecting a ‘real life’ gauge of approximately 2 feet 3 inches. Due to its compact size and gauge, it is possible to create complex layouts in limited spaces, which are perfectly plausible based on where narrow gauge railways were used in reality; mines and quarries, coastal areas and mountains, military installations and rural byways. The opportunity for creativity and imagination is unlimited with OO9, it sits perfectly alongside a conventional OO system and rolling stock, and in addition to its own Scenecraft narrow gauge slate structures it is perfectly at home with all OO scenic products and buildings. Interest in the scale has never been higher and new products are hotly anticipated.

What track does OO-9 scale run on?
