A Note on 1:64, S Scale, and "HO" Slot Cars
Yes, we offer 1:64 scale products. This scale goes by different names depending on the hobby, which causes a lot of confusion:
- In model railroading, 1:64 is called S scale (American Flyer trains, for example).
- In slot car racing, 1:64 cars are commonly called "HO" slot cars (Aurora, AFX, Tyco, Tomy). This is a historical naming convention; these cars are not actually 1:87 scale.
- True HO scale is 1:87 and refers to model trains only.
In short:
- Looking for S scale (1:64) buildings or accessories? Those are our 1:64 products.
- Looking for buildings for an HO slot car layout? Those are also our 1:64 products.
- Looking for buildings for an HO model train layout? Those are our 1:87 products.
Not All Products Available in All Scales
Please note that not every product is manufactured in every scale. Check individual product listings for available scale options.
Multi-Scale Products
Some of our products work across multiple scales! For example, a large hangar or warehouse that's "to scale" for 1:87 can serve as an oversized industrial building for 1:160 scale layouts. Product descriptions will indicate when items are suitable for multiple scales.
Requesting New Scales
While we can't produce custom one-off scale requests, we do consider customer feedback when developing new products. If there's significant demand for a particular scale, it may influence our future product development.
