Hello,
I'm thinking about switching from HO to N scale and want to look at some of N scales small layouts?
Please post your layout pictures.
Thanks, Greg
I wanted to know if N Scale layouts are the same as HO Scale layouts minus the size. Are the engines reiable and do they come with DCC Sound decoders? I have a lot of HO scale stuff, but no room. I want to maybe build a small N Scale railroad around 3 to 4 ft by 7 ft. Any answers.
Thanks in...
Hello,
Looking to build a small N Scale railroad in DCC using either Kato Unitrack or Atlas Code track with roadbed. Any suggestions from anyone? I want to have a coal mine, industrial and small city.
Thanks, Greg
Hello,
Is N Scale just like HO railroading but smaller? Is there any disadvantages of using N Scale railroading? I'm having trouble finding DCC PRR engines?
Thanks, Greg

Hello, I need some good ideas on scenery and mountains. I bought the walthers backdrops and I think I am using them. My layout is a uU-shape layout and only 2 foot wide max. I used foam to do the mountains and sprayed glue on it with some grass. Then I added some bushes trying to model the...
I am adding scenery now, like bushes, trees, grass, etc... and want to know how to do it the best way. I purchased Woodland Scenics products and want to add them this week. Colors are Dark Green and Med Green colors.
Thanks,

Hello,
This is my Layout and I started building the mountains and added some rocks and added pigaments to the rocks to add color and sealed it with Scenic Spray/Glue. Also adding portals on both entrance to tunnels and grass/bushes.
What else should I add or do to make it look real...
What are the best lights to use for Proto 2000 diesel engines, Bachmann Spectrums and Atlas Master engines when using DCC decoders. These are PRR engines too.
Should I use 12 or 14 volts lights or LED's? Or use resistors?
Thanks,
Greg
Anyone have any suggestions on good Background for behind the HO layout, such as trees, woods, industry and plants, etc... Trying to also add in a Pittsburgh City Scenery from 4x6 photo blown up, will see.
