Not all modellers select N because they have small spaces; some use N scale to build more complex or more visually expansive models.
When H0 scale was being introduced, the motors available were too large [4] to fit in scale-sized bodies and so as a compromise the scale was increased from 3.5 mm to 4 mm to the foot, but the gauge was not changed so other elements could be shared. For 00 therefore the track is about 12.5% narrower than it should be for the scale used.
