Just a few words on Japanese and European model trains. In Japan, N scale has a market share similar to HO scale in the US. The reason is obvious - space. In N scale, you can get about any EMU that roams the Japanese rails, but in HO scale, the choice is clearly limited. HO trains, which are not in 1/87, but in 1/80 scale, are quite expensive, as are European made trains. If you are looking into German trains, there is an easy distinction. All trains painted in a grayish white color with a red stripe are high speed trains, all trains in red are commuter or short distance trains. Should you be interested in a particular model, just ask me, I may be able to give you some background on it.
