<p>Way I see it:</p><p>N scale advantages:</p><p>1. With Nscale's 12" radius, you can build more railroad in smaller space. This is a big advantage.</p><p>2. Nscale looks more realistic, in that the smaller scale looks less contrived and toy like.</p><p> HO advantages:</p><p>1. If they make it, they make it in HO. LOTS available</p><p>2. Easier to work on rolling stock and engines</p><p>3. More room for DCC decoders etc</p><p>4. Finer detail</p><p>5. Less derailing? (when uncoupling by hand for sure). I dunno, what do you think on this one? Is HO generally more reliable? Fewer derailments and inadertant uncouplings?</p><p>6. Your hand can fit up an HO tunnel.</p><p>Feel free to chime in with your own.</p><p> </p>
