This is a teaching moment. Because the things in life you value aren’t common values for others. Your priorities aren’t their priorities. That’s how. N scale allows you to model more scenery and longer trains in the same given space as you could achieve in HO or O scale. That’s how. That’s an easy question. As you grow and mature in life, you’ll recognize that life is a series of trade offs. Make the decisions that work best for you and don’t worry about the decisions of others.

my bad, the HO f unit is a dummy that had the couplers break off during shipping so it doesn’t serve much a purpose other than spare parts. The N scale one is so loaded with weights it may as well be a brick. And as for the storage. I got nothing. I don’t have anywhere better to put them and I fuckin hate it because I don’t want them breaking

I agree. H.O. is best scale for modeling. But I only have room for a 4×8 layout and in H.O. all you really can do is an oval with a siding and that's pushing it. N scale I can do so much in the same space. And like someone else commented, newer N scale trains are awesome.

HO and I have been noticing S scale too. A little bigger but man those details on S scale are really cool! Just dont think there is much variety !

Oh yeah and to clarify why I treated the HO scale F unit roughly is because it’s a dummy, both the couplers broke off at some point during shipping and the screws got lost, it has nothing inside of it and was merely used for comparison

The only reason they didn't skills good is because that you can put a lot of stuff in one room. Whereas the biggest scale of model trains can't fit very well on one room

For me its the space efficiency, much much longer track and more land for the same amount of space compared to HO

All comes down to budget and space really, from what I’ve heard N scale was (and still is) really popular in Japan due to the smaller housing, same reason why OO was (and, again, still is) popular in the UK come the 1950s as O gauge train sets were too big and expensive for most UK households of the period

The scale depends on the amount of space you have for a layout. How very little room, use N scale. Have a lot of room and want to go all out use O. Dont want to spent to much but want to go big still? Use N. Have a lot of space and money then go O. Again, it depends how much you are willing to spend and where you are going to have it
