What are the main advantages of N-Scale?
The are many but perhaps the largest advantage actually is the small size.
In this day and age, it can be difficult to devote a large area of living space to a model railroad. With N Scale, you can a have a very large railroad in a very small space. If you live in an apartment and think you can't have a model railroad, you definitely need to give N Scale a look. In countries like Japan, as well as many countries in Europe where living space is at a premium, N-Scale has actually become the preferred scale surpassing even the larger HO Scale for popularity.
For those that do have a large space, N Scale offers another advantage since it will allow you to run prototypical length trains of 100 cars or more! You can create layouts where the scenery dominates the railroad just like in real life.
