I am away from home at present but when I get back after the weekend I will post some links you might find useful.

Thanks since receiving replies I have got paper and pen and calculator out to try to get head around USA and UK O Guage diferrences........This is what I have worked out ...In USA they work to a nice round and tidy 1/4 Scale....but here in Europe we have O Guage at 1/3.58 scale (crazy ??)...In USA 1 ft represents 4ft......In Europe 1 ft represents 3.58 ft.
