HO vs N Scale ScaleTrains Rivet Counter C44-9W

#scaletrains #tsgmultimedia #modeltrains #nscalevshoscale
Have you ever looked at a ScaleTrains N scale model? No, have you ever really looked at it? When I was recording the N Scale Friday episode that published on September 29, 2023, I realized that the N scale C44-9W model I was looking at is almost as detailed as the HO model of the exact same locomotive. Since I borrowed both of these models from my friend James, I decided to do a side-by-side comparison. If you're not really paying attention, you might mistake the N scale one for something bigger!

Phenomenally superb N scale locomotive, and HO. About the only thing I noticed consistently was that the N scale couplers, grabs and handrails are bigger, which is understandable. 👍

I don't know why N scale doesn't have a larger share of the market. It is so good now!

[@g.w.7893]

Couldn't agree more. The current crop of N scale Scale Trains and Micro Trains stuff is sublime.

[@CosmicMomentumX]

Biggest thing I noticed between them is the hand rails. They can only make them so thin.

[@BigBushWookie]

You can probably use some mega thin wire to replace the railings

I'm an Ho scale person n the o gauge, o scale, garden scale n the big scales that you can ride on your property n entertain friends and family

I've only just 'discovered' Scale Trains and I have to say, I'm really considering a return to North American N scale modelling.
I don't have the room for HO and don't have the skills to fit all that added detail like grab irons, coupler cut levers, etc. I was always frustrated by the 'bald' look of N scale but this level of detail just blows my mind and, as a mostly European modeller, the prices for DCC ready are extremely attractive, even accounting for import duties.
Nice job Scale Trains!

The quality of the details gives away the N-Scale model... but also highlights that it's VERY good (you do need to look at relatively minute details to tell).

My Wife And I model Ho And N Scale And We Are Proud of Both And We Will Never Give Up or Ho And N Scale.

The hobo union approves of this video.😊😊

The HO locomotive is beautiful but I love the N Scale locomotive more because there is more room for a layout in the smaller scale. N Scale details are getting better and better with each passing year. If I had the money and the space, and I really wanted trains that look exactly like the real thing, I’d go for O scale.

All in one package kinda thing

It looks like they didnt paint the trucks on the n scale.

[@JB-ud6vm]

N scale has really come a long way, awesome models.

[@elleryparsons2433]

Yeah Bachmann And Kato Joined The Ranks Of Model Railroading And My Wife And I Love It.
