As in other railway modelling scales, "Finescale" is an aspiration rather than an absolute.

(For example, a 4mm scale modeller can choose between BRMSB, NMRA, EM and Protofour, in approximate order of 'purity'.)

This page will aim to compare the various finescale options in Gauge One in terms of convenience, appearance, functionality and compatibility.

However, we have no room here for snobbery or condescension. By all means go Scale because it's your passion. But if your aim is to score points off other people, then I respectfully suggest you take up sport.
