N Scale Train Sets Use Less Space

October 10, 2005

With N scale model train sets a three-foot wide layout could accommodate up to a 213 scale foot radius. The smaller N scale model train sets are also more accommodating to larger quantities of cars in a train. So, if you like the idea of long trains going through towering landscape, then an N scale model train set might be what you are looking for.

Due to the smaller size, N scale model train sets are more intricate. For this reason N scale model trains can be less suitable for youngsters and the more seasoned model train enthusiasts who may find it difficult manipulating the small N scale rolling stock. With N scale model train sets there aren’t as many options in terms of accessories compared to those available in HO Scale but with growing popularity this is changing.
