Track gauges play a central role in the world of model railroads. This is because the gauges determine the size and scale of the models. These gauges range from the tiny Z-gauge, a gauge that is ideal for very small spaces, to G-gauge, which can be found in large exhibitions or outdoor areas. Each gauge has its own fanbase and offers completely different possibilities for landscaping around the locomotives. The choice of gauge is ultimately a question of space, preferences and also financial possibilities.
