Scales... N or HO

[Dayliner]

I model in N, but it's not necessarily an easy choice between that scale and HO. I did some modelling in N scale back in the late 70's and early 80's, and swore that if I ever got back into model railroading, it would be in HO. N was just too clunky, unrealistic, and toylike for me. Then a few years ago I walked into a hobby shop and was blown away by what had happened to N in twenty years--so here I still am in 1:160 land. But I have to admit, I drool a bit over the HO stuff in my LHS both for the detail and the selection. For me, the deciding factor, as it probably is for many modellers, is that I can do more in limited space in N scale.

I model in HO mainly because most other people do and since it's the most popular scale, it has the most available....Simply stated. [^]

HO SCALE!

I model in N, I also operate Hirail O. I model in Nscale because of the great availability of fantastic rolling stock (microtrains),affordable well running diesel locomotives (Steam selection small but growing) and a world class track system. I also like to run long trains with multi unit lashups and I have two Ntrak modules. Operate O only at Xmas.
