All about HO scale model trains

Discover in our store a very large range of model trains in HO scale! Control your locomotives with analog or digital power supplies. And to embellish your train layout, the track and all the accessories necessary to build your scenery.

What is an HO scale model train?

HO scale is a scale used in model railroading and corresponds to 1:87 in Europe and 1:87.1 in North America. It is the most used scale in the world. It is derived from the "O scale" because it stands for Half-O (half scale 0).
The reproduction of the normal HO scale track is standardized to a reduced gauge of 16.5 mm.
There is also a 00 (Double Zero) variant often associated with HO, which remains a British peculiarity, standardized by the NMRA12. It is a reproduction of the standard gauge track at 1:76.2 scale, running on 16.5 mm gauge track for ease of use. The British models in 00 are very close to those in HO. The model gauge, faithfully reproducing the standard gauge track would be 19.1 mm gauge.

What choice to make for your model train ?

You will find many versions of model railroad in HO on our site that you can add to your collection or to complete other parts of your train.
Want to go for a little ride in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region ? Get the electric TER AUTOMOTRICE Z7334. It has photo-etched roof grilles with realistic representation of the roof resistors specific to the Z7300 and a led lighting to allow you to discover the whole miniature world.
As for the Steam locomotive class 80 DB, it will be ideal to complete your associated cars. It is a standard German locomotive of the Deutsche Reichsbahn . They were intended to replace the aging engines of the public railroads performing shunting in large stations.
You will also discover different miniature settings such as the worker's garden or the windmill to furnish your set!
