Gidday,
I am forging ahead into the depths of HOn30 and now seek guidance from the wise and learned..
My first question to you all is:
"What manufacturer of N gauge steam locos would be considered to have the best running / smoothest mechanisms??"
I ask this as I am looking for suitable small and mid-sized N gauge steamers to kitbash into HOn30 locos and I want them to be really reliable and smooth operators.
My second question is:
"Is Kato N gauge gear any good?"
I have a friend in Japan who has access to Kato n gauge stuff, and from what I have seen of Kato HO locos they make very nice mechs, but I have no first hand experince with any Kato N gauge gear.
Thanks to all for your time.
