Always handy to have [g] Okay, that makes sense. That expanding foam is useful, but a little goes a long way. Travelling the interent can be time consuming for sure.. but while developing the plan and mission of what I want [currently logging and mining, turn of last century, on Vancouver...

Well, thanks for the good words, I will stick around.. currently awaiting some product I splurged on.. Buchmann 0-4-2, and (2) 2-6-0 's.. should be enough motive power to start.. also have some rolling stock comming as well as a bunch of flex-track, turnouts, etc.. not light rail, but affordable...

You do have a definite point and because many decades ago, my interest was in HO, I was gravitating towards HOn30. My thinking was that I could get much in a small space. Yes, I agree that to get realism, more work on detail is required in On30, than HO. But as you say, and I have found, there...

I have found a lot of product suporting On30 as and with the use of Code 83 or 70 rail, I should be able to build up an initial layout and experiment for reasonable cost. Also scratch building in 1/4" scale suits my older eyes better than HO. Bachmann product line is getting larger and more...

Right, I've been perusing web sites offering their product. Found one on Ebay, and he is selling because he can't fit DCC.. DCC is new to me, but I am seeing references to it so will do some more research. .. Advantages?.. better scale control?.. Individual control of different locos on same...

Great pics.. I see what you mean about scratch building on top of N sacale running gear. Right.. I think I fit in that category [g] Sounds like this n3, n30 approach would be the ticket for small displays or dioramas, but intensive for larger layouts. I am leaning towards the diorama...

Thanks Ron.. I see, thanks for the explanation. As I am currently interested in mining/logging scenerio, and not mainline [subject to change, of course] then this is appealing for that. Okay, which means actually modifying HO scale to use N guage running gear? Right, think I'll pass on...

Thanks for the reply.. been decades since I was active.. kids, marriages, job, life got in the way.. so I'm far behind the curve in the hobby.. Still have an old die-cast o6o from 50 yrs ago, but that's about all.. so rather than a full scale layout, was thinking of mlti level diorama, early...

Is there a forum or site using HO narrow guage,, I am looking at getting back into the hobby and logging shays and dioramas have my interest.. does HO have a narrow guage track and if so can it use a smaller guage exisitng track such as N or ? Thanks
