Which electric train is bigger?
"N" scale or HO? Which one would you buy for your kid?

1. I'm pretty sure
HO is bigger. That would probably be better for youngsters. N guage is more for your adult hobbyists, may be pricier and more easily squashed.

3. HO is bigger
How old is the kid?

The reall issue with small gauges is they are harder to handle for little people.

I got HO in third grade and it was fine for me.
