	HO scale - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		HO scale (H0 scale in continental Europe) is the most popular scale of model railway in most of the world outside the United Kingdom, where the slightly larger in scale OO scale is most common.
		Modern HO trains run on realistic-looking two-rail track, which is powered by direct current (varying the voltage applied to the rails to change the speed, and polarity to change direction), or by Digital Command Control (sending commands to a decoder in each locomotive).
		HO scale trains first appeared in the United Kingdom in the 1930s, originally as an alternative to OO scale.

		Ho is a city in south east Ghana and the capital of the Volta Region.
		Ho is the convention to write the way Santa Claus (and the Jolly Green Giant) laughs, as in "Ho ho ho".

	N scale - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		N scale (or sometimes N gauge) is a popular model railway size, allowing hobbyists to build layouts that take up less space than HO scale, or put longer track runs into the same amount of space, because the models are smaller (by nearly a half) than they are in HO scale (1:87).
		Early N scale was also known as "OOO" or "Treble-O" in reference to O and OO scales and was also 1:152, though for an entirely different reason.
		In Japan, a scale of 1:150 is used for the models of 3'6" gauge trains, while a scale of 1:160 is used for models of standard gauge Shinkansen (Bullet Train) models.

	Trains.com - N scale vs HO Scale?
		HO is more readily available, and is easier to model than N. The sound effects wiht HO are amazing, although I understand it is also available in N now.
		HO, my personal choice, is well-suited for the cheapskate, but it is also a nice size to represent older equipment (smaller diesels and early steam, 40-50' boxcars) in a reasonable space.
		So in many ways, N is the new HO and HO is the new O! N is much better for simulating L-O-N-G trains in a reasonable space, and for creating fairly dramatic scenic vistas without having to own an ampitheater in which to build a layout.

	Hello S Scale: Goodbye HO?
		With the popularity of HO scale, I find not only that I have become overwhelmed in trying to keep up with the available products, but that the sheer number of choices is mind-numbing.
		While there are more products in general available in O scale, the existence of a fine brass kit for a CNR Mogul (from S Scale Loco and Supply) and the promise of a CNR K-3 Pacific kit later this year (from Andy Malette) were enough to sway me in that direction.
		In terms of modelling direction, in HO scale or S scale, I envision creating specific scenes, one to one (see the Topic on modelling a single town).
