Introducing the OO/HO Gauge Parallel Track Tool, designed specifically for 00/HO Gauge Set Track Pack of 4 Three Way Gauges. This innovative tool is essential for ensuring equal spacing between trains as they pass each other on parallel tracks, making it easier than ever to construct your layout with precision and efficiency.
Crafted using advanced 3D printing technology, this tool is made from durable PLA plastic, guaranteeing its longevity and reliability. Its high-quality construction ensures that it can withstand the demands of regular use, providing you with a reliable tool for all your track-building needs.
With an approximate gap of 67mm or 2'6 inches, measured from the centre of each track, this tool allows for consistent spacing between parallel tracks. This precise measurement ensures that your trains can pass each other smoothly and without any disruptions, enhancing the overall realism and functionality of your layout.

When planning your OO gauge model railway, deciding how far apart to place parallel tracks might seem tricky. While you have creative freedom in your layout design, following a few key rules can make the process easier.
Consider the type of points, like turnouts, in your design—they affect the spacing between parallel lines. There are two main types: regular points, commonly in starter sets, create a wider 67mm gap between tracks, allowing clearance for turns. Streamlined points, like those from Peco, offer a more realistic 51mm gap. Be cautious with these on bends to ensure smooth passage for longer coaches or rolling stock.
In summary, let your choice of points guide the spacing between parallel tracks for a layout that aligns with your vision and enhances realism. Make thoughtful decisions for a smoother construction process, ensuring optimal train clearances and an authentic look.
Our approach to designing gauges sets me apart from other sellers. I start from scratch, ensuring that the measurements are accurate and precise using digital callipers. My quality is unparalleled, as evidenced by the glowing reviews from satisfied customers.
