Greetings All!
First off let me say i am a G scaler and really dont know much about O scale.
What i do know is O scale engines and rolling stock are diverse and plentiful. In contrast, G scale engine selection, especially american lines, is limited.
I like the larger scales because i don't have to get too close or put on readers to enjoy running them.
However,, i have always been put off by that middle rail in O scale. (aside from a rack rail or subway third rail)
I know conversions and track exists . Aside from changing electronics , motor and gearing,
How hard is it really?
What are the unseen obstacles?
What are the advantages?
Thanks in advance
My current project:
Lionel 1/32 GP 20 shell on custom frame and trucks
