Hopefully you experienced folks can help me make the decision between N scale and HO. <br /> <br />Here are the facts: <br /> <br />Space available is along two walls-one wall is 15 feet-the other is 9 feet. I can go 4 feet wide if needed. <br /> <br />My preference is to have lots of switching and dropping off and picking up cars, as well as a yard. I am not that interested in long runs or long trains. I want to model industries as opposed to scenics and people. <br /> <br />I know from the reading I have done thus far I can have much more in N scale in that space than HO, but I am concerned because I have big hands whether the small size of N will frustrate me. I also like the size (look) of HO better but I don't know if an HO layout in the space I have to work with will provide enough switching etc; I know that N will. <br /> <br />What would you all recommend given the above? <br /> <br />Thanks for your help.
