The S scale line was not there when I cut and pasted the section into the list.  Some one snuck it in after I did my cut and paste...

Hi guys,

Please look again at the listing. It says S scale about an inch to the left of the photo.

Thanks!

1:64 scale is S-scale - i.e. roughly halfway between HO-scale (1:87.1) and O-scale (1:48).  Yea, those trucks would be about 4x bigger than your N-scale trucks (1:260).

Probably just a fat finger by the data entry folks. After all, if N scale can end up being 1:260, that truck could be N scaleWink

Went to the website and the Truck is listed as 1/64 scale.  Seems a little larger than "N" scale and HO
