Some Dimensions of S Scale:

Scale to foot: 3/16" = 1 foot.

Proportion to the prototype: 1/64. By comparison O scale = 1/48, HO scale = 1/87 and N scale = 1/160.

Distance between rail heads: .883"

Code .100 rail in S scale = 110 lb. rail in prototype.

Code .125 rail in S scale = 155 lb. rail in prototype.

We're On The Move : S scale is one of the fastest growing scales within model railroading today and is growing in leaps and bounds. Why? Because you need only 10% more space than HO to operate, our products are proliferating in the market place and S scale products run reliably, track better and are easily modeled to prototypical accuracy.
