TBH if it’s just the gauge/scale that’s an issue for you it would be far easier to stick with re-wheeled OO models and go for EM track, so much easier nowadays and a lot ready to lay if your a member of the EM Society.
A matter of scale.... OO/HO
Just wondering if there are any trains/locomotives available in both OO and HO?
I understand the difference between them and don't really care which one is 'better' as it were. But curious if anyone sells the same model in both? Being UK based and already owning OO models, it is the obvious choice. Although I think the engineer in me does feel a little irked as the mismatch of gauge and scale with OO. But HO seems to be rare here to buy without importing and paying high shipping and fees.
On the flip side of this thought process. Are there any non UK trains easily available in OO? I quite like some of the US classic 4-4-0 Steam locos and some of their modern diesel electrics. But mismatching scales on a layout or even a display grates at me a little....
Thanks.
