What does HO scale mean? is it the same size as 1/87?

HO is 1/87 scale, HO I'm not sure what that means, maybe someone or something that was the first to make or be made in that scale?

This my first post so I'm not sure if I'm doing this right, but here goes: HO is a model railroad scale (1/87) it's short for "Half O" scale (O being an other model R.R. scale). It's one of the most popular model R.R. scales.

A short time ago a stumbled onto a TTTT web site while checking out model R.R. stuff. I was instantly hooked. What a great match, a TTTT truck to drive over the HO Railroad layout I plan to build. One of my interest is "offroading", I own a rock crawling jeep CJ5. Now I plan to build a rock crawling TTTT truck to go with it. I just have find places here in the states that supply the needed parts, specially the electronics, tiny gears, motors and such.

Hey Boris it would be great to see pics of your Opel Blitz trial truck travelling over your layout.
