<font face="Arial"></font id="Arial"><font size="6"></font id="size6"> <br />I would like to purchase a Graham Farish N scale locomotive, and cars and create the Hogwarts Express from the Harry Potter books. To my knowledge there is no N-scale version, and I would like to have/make one. I live in the USA and the Graham Farish N-scale is what Bachman's N-scale is sold under in the UK. <br /> <br />First off, would it be possible to purchase a British N-scale and run it on a USA N-scale track? From what I have read the answer would be No - due to power differences between the two countries. Question 2. Would the wheel width be the same between British N-scale and USA N-scale? If so, then the problem would be to solve the power problem between the two systems. Would it be possible to rewire the Graham Farish locomotive to run under the USA N-scale configuration? <br /> <br />Obviously, this is going to be a project that takes a little time [:D] , but I have the interest to follow through on it, and I just want to know if it can be done. Any suggestions would be appreciated. <br /> <br />Thanks a bunch! <br /> <br />Don
