OOO this was an early form of N-guage, (British), but I think the scale is actually 1:150, althought the guage is N (9 millimeters) Micro-Ace (in Japan) presently makes some 1:150 models, which run beautifully, and look ok with real N-scale. OO The British version of this runs on HO-Guage track, rather than properly scaled OO guage track. I believe the Evanstan people (I know of one, a Mr. Temple Neiter occaisio,nally mentioned in Model Railroader) use proper OO guage track George Chaltas
