G Scale Trains
G scale model trains are one of the largest scale trains that are manufactured.
G scale model trains are available from the majority of model train retailers and they are ‘ready to go’ right out of the box.
You would have to build a train yourself at great expense if you wanted a bigger sized train.
Most people refer to G scale trains as ‘Garden Trains’ because they are nearly always to be found in gardens – the letter ‘G’ of the scale does not stand for ‘garden’ though.
In actual fact, the G scale was created by the Germans and it’s so called because the German word for big is “gros” …and these trains are big. Hence G scale trains.
