Shamus,

That is one fine looking N-scale layout.

I was wondering, since you are comfortable with On30, what made you choose N-scale over HOn30?

With your penchant for cobbling-up On30 locos and cars from HO stuff, I would think you would have carried that over, using N-scale locos to make all kinds of neat HOn30 power.

Just curious.
 
Hi Dan.
I was into N-scale 20 years ago and just thought I would have another crack at it for fun.

Shamus,

I have a lot of N too and have not ventured into HOn30 yet.

Thought about making a dual purpose layout with plug-in buildings to change scales. Tunnel portals would be the main problem.

I was just curious because of all your great narrow gauge models in On30.

Hi Dan,

The plug in buildings is a nice concept, but as building sizes differ quite a bit from scale to scale I doubt it would be viable. Also Track widths would be different.

cheerio
