What is the smallest scale?
The smallest commercial scale in railway modelling is T Gauge.
It runs on 3mm track and is 1/450 in scale. It is approximately a third of the size of N gauge.
Because of the small weight, wheels are magnetic to improve traction.
Two British outline locomotives are available: HST 125 and Class 67. Generic rolling stock (container wagons and tanker wagons) can help create a small train formation.
Availability is limited but due to the size and the difficult to build realistic items that small, most people consider the scale a proof of concept rather than a working modelling scale.
