What Scale Is This?

[One of One-Sixty]

How much is the difference in size is 1/160 cars compared to 1/150 cars?  I brought a couple from eBay that was suppose to be 1/160, but they are much bigger than the cars I have, but smaller than 1/87. Anybody know what size this could be?

This is a Toyota bB, better known here as a Scion xB next to Atlas Ford F-150. vehicles

Roll the dice ...

Looking at the pic it looks closer to 1:144, a scale that for some reason is popular among toy car makes that make 'em smaller than HO.

The 1:150 vehicles look rather big compared to N scale (1:160) vehicles to my eye. Bear in mind that plenty of people insist that I cannot see the difference. :

Your experience may vary.

If you're really interested join the N scale vehicles group on yahoo - peeps there regularly review the various "near N" vehicles and supply scale measurements vs proto measurements and sometimes photo comparisons too.

It might be a toy (which could be any arbitrary size hovering around 1:144), or it might be made for British N scale, which is 1:148. Based on the photo, though, I'd say it was a toy, possibly larger than 1:144. One way to find out: measure the length of the model, and compare it to the published spec for the real car.

That actually looks closer to HO then N. I would say about 1/100. The XB should be about 18 scale inches LOWER then the F150!

Some of Bachmann's vintage 60's vehicles (most of set # 2) scale out over 1/144.
