OO9, also known as 009 or 00-9, is a model railway scale 1:76 that uses 9 mm track. This combination represents real-life narrow-gauge tracks with a gauge of 2 ft 3 in (686 mm). Popular in the UK because it's ideal for modelling narrow-gauge railways with gauges between 2 ft (610 mm) and 2 ft 6 in (762 mm). In this series, you'll discover stunning model railways built to this scale. Enjoy these quintessentially British layouts! Credits: Peter Murfet - For the Love of Steam

OO9 scale

Cuckoo Junction is a large OO gauge home model railway in the UK, featuring a junction station, loco shed, and narrow gauge feeder line in the 009 scale (1:76 scale, 9mm track gauge). This private layout has never been publicly exhibited, but was filmed exclusively for 24Trians.tv, especially the narrow gauge section. A selection of commercial and kit built locomotives are seen in action with both steam and diesel traction. The video is completed with the use of sounds recorded from real world narrow gauge lines, smoothly synchronised with the model! Credits: Peter Murfet - For the Love of Steam

009 Narrow Gauge on Cuckoo Junction

In this video we take a look at &lsquo;Bron Hebog&rsquo; model railway, a large (20' by 10') 009 scale model railway based on Beddgelert and the surrounding area on the rebuilt Welsh Highland Railway We compare a couple of shots of the model with footage filmed on the real life locations which inspired it. This multi award winning layout has been described as incredible and mind blowing and surely ranks as one of the finest achievements in 009 scale. Credits: Peter Murfet - For the Love of Steam
