A lot of people think that the N scale train is not as [url=http://www.vivid-host.com/barbour.htm]www.vivid-host.com/barbour.htm[/url] good as some other more popular scales, like HO. [url=http://www.vivid-host.com/barbour.htm]barbour uk outlet[/url] These same people are older folk who may not see as well, or may have manual dexterity problems due to arthritis.
It is safe to say that these trains are small, only 1:160 scale, but [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/airjordan.php]nike air jordan pas cher[/url] the N scale trains are ideal for people who [url=http://www.thehygienerevolution.com/barbour.php]barbour paris[/url] don't have a lot of space, but still want a really decent layout. You can do a lot with a basic 8'x4' space.
Many say that spare parts and accessories are hard to find, but that really isn't the case. You may not find all the parts you're looking for at your local hobby shop, but you will find many basic sets available. Also, resources like Ebay are great for finding spare N scale parts.
For all of your miniature buildings and scenery, just go online and look on search engines like Google or Yahoo. Some forums also have a products page as well. You will not only [url=http://www.vivid-host.com/barbour.htm]barbour uk[/url] find just as much products and the HO model trains, but some products you just can't find in larger scales.
Now the first thing you should know right away is, N scale model trains, being 1:160 scale, are going to have a lot of small parts, as well as being a hobby that requires [url=http://www.1855sacramento.com/peuterey.php]peuterey outlet[/url] electricity. You will have to make sure you are working away from children under ten, and then only with supervision. For these sets and layouts, it would be a suggestion to assemble [url=http://www.lcdmo.com/jordanpascher.php]jordan pas cher[/url] the [url=http://www.getconversational.com]hollister france[/url] layout first, and then let the kids look at it.
The first step is to get a good basic train set. You [url=http://www.davidhabchy.com]barbour sale[/url] have many choices from which to choose, including freight trains and passenger trains.
This is also the optimal scale for trains with a lot of cars, because the cars aren?t heavy, yet have a lot of detail. You can choose a varietyof engine and car styles and designs, including special holiday additions.
The holidays are a great time to find more uncommon sets. You can find festive accessories, and even complete layouts, with holiday engines and cars, carolers, snow capped buildings and much more. My wife and I do this every Xmas and it looks great!
Some of the have mechanisms that actually work, like miniature clock towers, and buildings that play music. A lot of these are battery powered, and require no extra power, which is another really good feature about the N scale trains.
Now if you want a good basic layout, assuming you had all the right tracks and materials on hand, the following is a good setup for a 32"x40" area. You will need a total of 63 pieces of track with 24 Atlas-N R-11 30 degree curved tracks, 17Atlas-N R-9.75 30 degree curve track, 4 Atlas-N 0.63inch straight track, 8 Atlas-R 5inch track, and on Atlas-N 2.5 inch straight track.
You will also need 6 Atlas-N #2701 standard [url=http://www.jordanpascherofficiel.com]air jordan pas cher[/url] #4 right hand turnouts and 3 Atlas-N #2700 #4 left hand turnouts. It is basically four ovals inside of each other, with the third center oval actually a double oval, There is only a one way switch back from the outside, with two sets of [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/louboutin.php]louboutin pas cher[/url] switchbacks on the central ones.
The design you choose is totally up to you. You can get inspired from other hobbyists, or even from real-life [url=http://www.sandvikfw.net/shopuk.php]hollister sale[/url] setups. Many hobbyists (including myself) try to recreate actual train lines from various parts of the country. The possibilities are endless, so get creating and enjoy yourself
