[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Jetrock HOn3 (HO scale, 3-foot gauge) might be to your taste as the trains are somewhere between HO and N in size--imagine a layout with HO-scale buildings and people, but with trains only slightly larger in size than N scale, and curves that can be as tight as an N scale layout too. Not a bad choice if you have limited space for an indoor layout. Narrow-gauge stuff always tends to be rarer and cost more than standard gauge, but as most narrow-gauge railroads had small rosters and not a lot of rolling stock, it all evens out.[/br] [/quote] Just for clarification... The rolling stock and locomotives, etc, in HOn3 (or any other HOnXX) are still HO scale. The reason they are smaller is simply because the real life narrow gauge equipment tended to be smaller. Both a 4-4-0 Old timer steam engine and a new AutoMax auto rack are HO scale. The reason the engine looks so small is because that is how it was in real life. Andrew
