Is all On30 the same?

So, On30 is O scale trains on HO gauge track... Now, with O scale we all know how there are several different sizes... With On30 though, is everything (like Bachmann Spectrum) 1/48 scale?

Hi all,

I was a little surprised to see the confusion in this thread on scale/gauge.

On30 is O Scale narrow gauge rolling stock running on scale 30" gauge track. It's 1/4"=1' just like regular O scale equipment.

It just happens to more or less scale out to HO standard gauge track (and is compatible with HO tack).

On3, same deal but on 3' gauge track.
