Well, now that you have had a glut of HO responses, I'll take the N side. First one of the more well known layouts in Greater Vancouver, BC is an N scale layout. It is known for its operations and switching. People fly in from all over North America to run on it. It has been in several mags including MR. <br /> <br />I prefer HO but I switched to N to get the empire I wanted. Latter I learned to really enjoy the scale. One person I know with the biggest hands I know runs in N scale, she is also one of the most qualified in taking apart just about any N scale engine and re-assembling it - hand size doesn't need to be a deterrent. <br /> <br />The one frustration with the scale is seeing the numbers on cars so people use different methods to identify rolling stock. I'm not a fan of the coloured "thingies" on top on rolling stock to identify them but I know people use that method and are happy with it.
