HO scale is "half O"... it's 1/87th which is SUPPOSED to be half "O" scale. I used to do the 4H train building stuff for the county fair when my nephews were younger... So I kinda got into trains for awhile but didn't have an extra house to develop a layout, and the N and Z scale micro trains just don't 'do it' for me so I boxed it all up and put it in the back of the closet. I'd LOVE to mess with "G" scale but I'd have to win the lottery first... LOL 
Anyway, the nephews graduated to the 4H rocket program and got me started again, and now I'm totally hooked... OL JR
