Ho Scale and N Scale Model Trains - which to choose???

The scale model you select for your model train layout will be determined largely by the amount of room you have for your model train hobby

N Scale model trains are probably the smallest of the scales available. They are quite small in size and while they also suitable for small children play with, it is necessary to ensure adequate supervision of children who are handling such small metal objects.

Because N Scale is so popular there are many manufacturers - some of these are: Walthers, Atlas, American Model Builders, Bachmann and Busch. These companies not only make these small scale trains but also appropriately scaled scenery and associated products.

The most popular choice for an all-around train set, provided you have the room, are the HO Scale model trains. Accurail, Athearn, Atlas, American Model Builders, Bachmann, Broadway Limited, Busch, Classic Metal Works, and Heljan are some of the companies that make G Scale trains and/or products and scenery etc.
