Of all the different scales available to model railway collectors my personal favourite is the O scale also referred to as the O gauge trains and sometimes simply as “large scale”. O gauge trains are rarely cheap but if you can afford the investment then they are usually well worth aquiring both in terms of asset appreciation and personal enjoyment. They do require a larger space to set up a working layout so you should allow for at least a 6′ x 6′ table area to install your O gauge trains and track.

Here are the O Gauge train results for collectors looking specifically for O Gauge. If this page is empty, be sure to check this site again later for more O Gauge train listings as these listings are updating hourly or even more frequently. The best O gauge trains are always in high demand by model railway collectors. You can see some results from a search below but there are times when O Gauge trains and listings simply may not be available for sale at all. Many of the popular and exceptional items are not often found for sale as people usually keep them at home and rarely sell treasures like these.

Do you have any advice for selling O Gauge trains and track?

We’ve received this enquiry:

My late husband had an O Gauge layout in our garden, since, I have had it taken to pieces as i could not look after it. Could you possibly let me know the best way to go about selling selling the train and track that was not used?
Thank you

I just wanted to show you these three O Gauge trains items. They are all from the Hornby clockwork O gauge trains range as fasr as i can tell, certainly I recognise the level crossing directy from my own memory. The goods van brake van is very familiar too. I’m not quite so sure about the tin plate station though. It would fit in well with any O gauge train set layout I believe, but I’m not convinced it’s a Hornby original. Anyway, here are the pictures:

Bassett Lowke 4-6-0 Patriot No 46102

I bought the above locomotive at an auction recently, (sold as tested, working). I do not have a layout. The model is in a display case. However, I recently tried to rotate the driving wheels by hand but found them unable to move. Should they rotate without power?
Also there are two rods with buttons on the end inside the cab. Can you tell me what these controls do?

Many thanks

If you’re modelling Hogs Meade, or platform 9 3/4, from the Harry

The tightest curves that the train will negotiate are O-36, so if your
layout is based on O-31 or O-34 that should be fine.

O gauge trains and model railways are great but what about full sized steam trains, narrow gauge and heritage railways?

Around Britain there are numerous steam railway museums, some of which have O Gauge model railways exhibited to give a realistic view of what the particular railway line was like back in the days of steam, and there are others with full sized original or restored steam engines and vintage carriages.

Here’s a taste of what you might see at Tenterden in Kent for example.

And of course there are all those great little trains in Wales.
