Standard Gauge was made popular in the early part of the 20th Century by Lionel,
Ives and American Flyer. Known also as "Wide Gauge," it used a 2 1/8" gauge
three-rail track. The trains themselves were either tinplate or diecast, and
they were very large and heavy.
Note that Standard
Gauge never purported to be "scale," although if scaled they would be 1/24 to
1/25. If you compare Standard Gauge to a 1/24 Large Scale train., however, you
will see just how "non-scale" Standard Gauge can be.
