You're right in thinking that you will be able to fit more in in N scale, but I would say this depends on what you want to do. In my experience, N is good for mainlines and similar layouts, but not so good for switching. That's the main reason I started modelling HO. I also hear that the N-scale magnetic couplers are a bit trickier to get working than Kadees in HO. However, for a mainline layout N would be a good choice - the new Kato Superliners and Amtrak Genesis locos look very good, as do the Athearn bilevels, though the matching F59PHI is supposedly a little on the rapid side! Hope this helps.
