The Lima S.p.A. (Lima Models) is a firm of Vicenza from the mid-1950s until 2004 realized model railways.
He reproduced mainly models in H0 scale (1:87), but also in N scale (1: 160) and 0 (1:45). He exported throughout most of Europe, USA and South America, Australia and South Africa. For the UK market produced rail vehicles in scale 00.

History
La Lima, Italian Metalworking and Allied Products was founded in Vicenza in 1946, as a specialized company for the repair and construction of the aluminum parts of railway carriages damaged during the just ended war. But soon the Railways organized arsenals to achieve these repairs internally and Lima is reconverted to the production of metal toys: prams, strollers for dolls, pots, pots, boats and cars.
In 1954 Ottorino Bisazza (who died in 1987), then director of the Marzotto, bought this small factory owned by a relative of the Count Marzotto.
The railway era model was driven, in Italy, from Como Rivarossi, competitor of foreign giants named Märklin and Fleischmann: sophisticated productions for an adult audience with high prices. ''The intuition of Bisazza,'' says the former sales director Silvio Conti, ''was that, if the market was likened to a pyramid, these brands will only occupied the summit. It remained to conquer the entire base, which is the thickest part, populated by children and their families. ''
