Open for comments......
I have some HO locos and rolling stock. I just started thinking about modeling in the last year after being a hardcore railfan for many years. (ex-brakeman too)
So........I look at N guage at shows, etc and think this scale certainly allows you to run "longer" trains in a smaller space. Also the scale is better for imitating the great distances involved in railroading.
There's a lot that appeals to me in that.
My HO buds say of course, much less selection in N and so on.
Just wondering if anybody would care to comment on pros and cons of N........does anybody do both? .......did you switch from one scale to another..?.........and so on. Just trying to better get my arms around it and then I'll ponder.
thanks
