I was wondering if we have any N Scale modelers on board here. I've gotten a hold of 2 very nice N Scale building kits over the years.
I'm completing Kibri's Roman Catholic Church model now and it's going to be beautiful. I've painted the building with floquil paints and highlighted the stone work by hand.
I also have an AHM minikits Modern Train Station, another huge kit. It's still in it's original shrink wrap.
I'm not sure what I'm going to do with these honestly. After putting so much time and effort into that church it would be hard to let go of it. Maybe a bookshelf railroad going around a room would be neat.

I have both an N scale layout and HO loops. Because of space considerations, N was the way to go for operations...that and the layout was given to me.

| I started purchasing n scale back in the spring for a small layout. I have a Kato CSX sd70 and kato unitrack and some of the Kato skyscrapers-they are very cool. HO still rules even though i have the outdoor G and an ho layout in a utility building. The only scales i do not have nor intend on purchasing are z & s.

Er, wait a minute... That layout in the drawer looks like the one in your video, but I thought that was HO? I see some TYCOKits on there...
I have a stash of N-scale, about 6 locos and 50 cars that I run on the club's N-trak display layout periodically. Plus a Kato Unitrak set (loop) that I set up for tinkering and testing (I rebuild our locos as necessary) and even putzing around with on occasion. The basic Kato set is a great deal - far better quality and cheaper than an equivalent Bachmann setup.
No room for a permanent setup though.

I have a couple of N scale layouts that I am rebuilding.
I also belong to the N scale branch of the Central Arizona Model Railroad club.
The CAMRRC N scale branch has a modular layout that we set up at shows.

Excellent stuff! I should have said above that I do have two static "N" scale locomotives. They are made by DelPrado and they are a PRR GG-1 in Tuscanw/5 stripes and a Milwaukee Road Bi-Polar EP-2

Indeed, in fact I currently have 2 N-Scale layouts.
The Alpine Railway - 2' x 3' fictitious German layout
Santa Fe Paradise - 2' x 4' fictitious western-USA themed layout dedicated to the ATSF.
Of course, I can't forget my first layout ever, in N-Scale, which I built over 6 years ago, which started my journey into model railroading and train collecting.
