If you are into the modern era's of today's trains, N scale interestingly enough is your best choice. An SD90 in HO looks almost like a G scale engine whereas in N scale it has a nice presence about it. Many will disagree but HO is the best scale for the transition era, S is great for narrow gauge, N for modern equipment (and I can hear the moans already... lol) and if you want an empire in a coffee table, z scale. <br /> <br />If space is going to be a challenge, I would go N (as I have, selling off most of my HO equipment). If I had lots of space, I would model in S. Space and era should be the greatest determining factor, followed by availability of stock in chosing a scale.
