@feet posted:I've never posted here before now. I'm thinking about switching scales. Giving a hard look at H O.
The main reason is that H O has a standardized control system. That and the variety of locomotives and rolling stock that is available.
I've been in HO for most of my 60 years of model railroading.
I have experimented in several scales, and I always come back to HO for some of the reasons you mention above.
IF you're coming from O gauge (3-rail in particular) and if you can adjust to the small size (compared to O 3-rail) that requires more dexterity, then you will LOVE the pricing, variety, DCC systems/etc. The modeling world will your oyster!
Feel free to stop by my thread here at the HONGZ forum (link below). You may see/read something that helps you get acquainted with what HO can do/etc. Plus, I can help with some of the specific questions you may have.
Good luck with your decision!
