Sorry I can't help you with the connection question since I model in HO but I think it's been answered already. <br /> I would have modeled in N gage if I had better eye sight and smaller hands. HO is tough enough, I should be in G scale! <br /> <br /> I'd say choose N scale if you like long trains running through big scenery. For the same amount of space in HO you can fit in more operations and have broader curves so you can run longer equipment. There isn't as much N scale items as HO but there is a lot of N scale stuff available and more is comming. <br /> <br /> Another option is you can combine the two if you want to model HOn30 (also called HOn2 1/2, HOe and partially OO9, not to be confused with HOn3). Basically it's HO scale equipment operating on N scale track. The drawbacks are very little rolling stock is available. You have to enjoy scratch building or kit bash your own equipment. Structures are in HO. Most narrow gage railroad themes are early minning and logging railroads. Here's a link for more info about modeling narrow gage.
