I like HO scale because you can have so much more on a layout than with O. Wiring the track is easy if you go with DCC, two wires and you're connected, but if you have a long distance of track you'll probably need a 2 wire bus line all the way around, with a pickup to each rail about every 20 feet. No experience with O scale, but as you said HO is more widely available, and comes in excellent detail, you can even get prototype sounds for most locomotives. <br /> <br />Good Luck <br />Greg
