Hornby on Bachmann track?

[thomasj219]

What are you comaring him too. Compare a Bachmann Brake van to an HO rolling stock from another line.

"HO items are much larger than them."

not following, first of all 4mm is bigger than 3.5 no? secondly Thomas is distinctly too big when set next to a regular HO loco.

It's no use in writing sensible things like this here, it sadly gets ignored.

Oh Please, this forum has become nothing but snide comments, I am merely stating the fact that most BACHMANN thomas items are more OO than HO

As I previously said earlier:

yes because 00 scale and HO scale are basically the same thing.

No.

HO is 3.5mm to the foot.

OO is 4mm to the foot.

Both ranges are technically OO, seeing as Bachmann's items scale up to it.

I really don't know why I decided to return here, it's just gone downhill.

That's all I meant.

I have Hornby Stepney and he runs fine on my E-Z HO track. All Bachmann rolling stock and Hornby rolling stock can be used together, but because of the coupler differences - I have noticed that detachments happen easier (between Hornby and Bachmann rolling stocks)

I use hornby track all my (bachmann and hornby) engines run fine on it
