2011年11月3日 · What are the best N scale locomotives, passenger coaches, and rolling stock manufacturers? Kato seems good from my minimal research. Even some Bachmann seems ok to start with. I am looking for strong opinions from model railroaders with years of experience.....or even anyone who is confident...

2008年3月16日 · Its interesting to compare our minimum radii to the prototypes, here in Brisbane where I run commuter trains on the 3'6" gauge there is for example, one mainline curve of 145 metre (475 ft) radius which translates to 35 1/2 inches in N scale, but in real life it looks very tight and has a 30 kilometre/hour (18 mph) speed limit.

2011年8月9日 · For the HO beginner MTH trains with DCS, DCC is veryhard to beat. The Athearn Genesis line is nice also, but uses only DCC. What is N scale? Just kidding.

2015年7月7日 · I took the spreadsheet provided by micro-trains of all their historical n-scale rolling stock releases and put it in an online database....

2023年5月16日 · A lot of nice scenery, layouts and trains ! Way to go mi amigos ! Keep them coming, they don't have to be N scale, we'll enjoy others also.

2011年12月28日 · If I had room for that I wouldn't be working in N scale to start with. Or go on a shopping spree for $100+ locos until I find one with some gonads and consequently bench my present one which has a real sentimental value to me. Or run 6 - 8 car trains which makes me feel like I'm stuck in the Bachmann / Tyco starter set club.

2016年2月25日 · The N-Scale Model Trains Database on TroveStar has surpassed the 51,000 mark! It now provides reference data (manufacturer, road name, road number, release date, pricing, etc.), product images, body style information, prototype information and company history on over 51,200 engines, rolling stock, structures and accessories.

2011年1月29日 · Two trains can be kept on layout, a through train and a local switcher to run alternately. Still cheating same amount- 2'4" wide, same footprint as above. Loads in/empties out pair. Two trains could possibly run at once in opposite directions with careful dispatching, or one could switch a little while other runs...

2023年1月23日 · Those who want large trains are more attracted by LGB layouts in the backyard, so that scale is growing somewhat (though not to the same factor as N). In 30 years, I can see the major scales in the hobby become N, HO and G, in that order.
