piperford- <br /> <br />O scale outdoors it not uncommon or unheard of! Others on this forum will be able to better advise you on the ups and downs of modeling in O scale outdoors. <br /> <br />As a matter of fact I think a recent issue of Garden Railway magazine featured such a layout. It was kind of a indoor/outdoor arrangement and was quite nice. Maybe Rene can recall the exact issue and you can get your hands on it. It was in the last year if I can recall. <br /> <br />However, to root on the side of G scale I must. The 5.5 foot radius converts to about a 10 diameter curve, thats the language we use. You usually never hear a Garden Railroader talking radius, only diameters. 10 foot is great. I have to have 4ft. diameters on my layout. Some would tell me not to bother. Anyway, I am sure there will be enough info tossed at you in the next week for you to make up your mind. <br /> <br />If I was you I would go with the G scale. It looks great, nice and big and has enough stuff to make any model railroader happy. Most G scalers have something inside and want the railroad outside for the summer months. Others like me just want a nice garden with a unique look. <br /> <br />Good Luck with whatever you decide. <br />Peter
