Status: offline 		Actually its the 1/16 scale kubelwagen I've been working on compared to my new T scale (1/450 scale) model train. This is the smallest model train that is commercially available. The track is 3mm wide, and the width of the train cars is less than half the diameter of a dime. Its hard to see in the video, but the cars have lights which are amber if its coming towards you, and red if its going away from you.

Status: offline 		You are right Z is 1/220. My train is T scale, 1/450 - very very small. You can put a pretty complex layout in the size of a breifcase, although Z scale has some briefcasse layouts as well.
 
I was thinking that this train is almost small enough to be a scale model train for a 1/16 soldier. But the scale relative to 1/16 would be 1/28, which would be fairly large for model trains.

Status: online 		Hmmm. I have trouble seeing the 1/16 stuff. Is that a video of your pet millipede circling your kubey? My god my eyesight isnt that bad, but that would make it worse. Tiny. But neat none the less.

Cheers,
Wade
