If your first scale listed is #1, it is 32:1, and was popular in the early days as a tinplate size, by Lionel, Ives and a few others.It was known as "Standard" gauge. There have been actual scale models in #1, and most recently, still made by Marklin. <br />TT was reasonably popular in the 50's, before N scale,( and it's predecessor OOO,)took off in popularity. <br />OO as used in Great Britain is not really a true scale, it is OO ( 4mm )models running on HO track, (3.5mm ). <br />True OO existed mainly in the USA in the 30's and 40's, and was overtaken after WWll by HO. <br />Never heard of V, but one of your other respondents answered this. <br />best regards/ Mike
