It is the most popular standard for use in United States N scale. NTRAK allows modelers to participate in a large layout but only invest a small amount of space at their own home. They can interchange (connect and operate) their module with any club or group that follows NTRAK standards.
A module with 620mm of track is referred to as a "double". Those with 930mm of track (3 x 310mm) are known as "triples" and, there are "quads" (4 x 310mm) and even longer T-TRAK modules for special situations. It is advisable that all track on straight modules be built as a multiple of 310mm units of track for reasons of compatibility.
An O-14 Inglenook plan. The track is based on Kilham Sidings, on the Alnwick-Cornhill branch of the North Eastern Railway (NER). [1] The sidings should be able to accommodate 5, 3, and 3 wagons, the leading spur accommodating 3 wagons and the locomotive.

Apart from the stations, there are four basic ways of arranging the track, and innumerable variations: Continuous loop. A circle or oval, with trains going round and round. Used in train sets. Point to ...
The term HOn30 (and sometimes HOn2½) is generally used when modelling American prototypes while H0e is used for European prototypes. In Britain, the term OO9 is used. [1] All these terms refer to models of narrow-gauge railways built to the world's most popular model railway scale of HO (1:87) but using a track gauge of 9 mm (0.354 in)—the gauge used for N scale models of standard-gauge ...
