    I'm an N scaler. I used to be HO, but converted to N scale about two years ago because you can do more in the same amount of space.

    HO is the way to go! As you can see, you can get much more detail into HO than N but N scale is great for absolutely massive layouts. With HO you can get some huge layouts yourself but, being bigger than N you can't have the largest layout in the world with it. I like HO because it not to small and its not to big and the detail now a days have gotten to be quite the show with it. Its classified as the best buying scale in the United States and more people own HO than any other scale.

    I'm not going to put down anybody like the others but I like N. The only reason why I like N is because for the size of my house it fits just right. I used to be HO but had to swap because my parents would not allow the amount of space HO would take up. So my (2) favourite scales are N scale and HO scale.

    You didn't even list my favorite scale. 1 1/2" scale 7 1/2" gauge. I model alot of G scale also. Inside modeling is in On30.

    Most of my stuff is N scale standard gauge but I also have Nn3, O (standard gauge), On30 and G and HO.

    I tried to sell my two cents worth, but no one would give me a plug nickel for it.

    I don't have a leg to stand on.

    ALOT of my money is going to G scale right now, but O scale Lionels will always be my first love.

    Right now I am a rubber gauger. I am doing N scale as a home layout eventually. Right now I am gathering Rolling Stock and then I will get a layout started as I get some space. And then I also belong to a model railroad club that is HO.
