1st Stumbling block for me

Actually I had planned to go N scale from the start. That is untill I went to the LHS and had a look at some N scale steamers. They are just so small, and dont give me the same cool factor feeling the HO scale does. With HO they are more detailed, and I can actually see the movement of the pistions and whatnot. With N scale I had them run a few of thier steamers and I was very unimpressed. <br /> <br />If I went N scale Id have to go Desiel, they actually look nifty. But I like Steamers much much more since I enjoy watching all the moving parts. Hence me wanting the Shay and climax. <br /> <br />As far as the Electrical panel goes, I could still access it quite easily, Im 6'9" with a rather long reach. Id just be sure to not cover it up with scenery and paint the face to match my backdrop. Or since its fairly low mount just build the benchwork above it. This would mean my kids would need stolls, but it its something to consider.
