N scale - What to buy

Ross of Buffalo, NY <br />Does anybody have any recommendations as to which company makes good N scale products ... <br /> <br />I've done the same Ross except come from military modelling and history to build an small N scale switching layout after 30 yrs on the other stuff. I dont have it all but quality in plastic appears to come from Kato, Atlas, MT, and the likes- a lot of ppl put down Bachmann but for the basics their freight stuff is OK for me, expect to do some customising. Specials and specific types and/or paint jobs you probably cant go wrong with Atlas, MT, Intermountain cars etc. <br /> <br />I've bought mainly s/h and also have not been diappointed with a few Trix/Minitrix/Arnold/Rapido cars, but then I'm not a US resident so my 'taste' of things is not that personal (only 1 visit to US in 2002). If I could afford it these would be my top new purchase votes. <br /> <br />I recommend two sites for review- NDB - The N Scale Locomotive Database and N Scale Locomotive Encyclopedia. Many others, contact off list if you'd like a heap of bookmarks. <br />Regards, davww
