The N3a is one of the SMALLER N-Scale layouts we make (72" x 30" in size) -- and as such can only run smaller trains (we recommend a max of 8 cars). We do, if your space and budget allow it, offer two STRETCHED versions (the N3b and N3c), which add 4 feet in length and let you easily run FOUR trains at a time (each up to 16 cars in size) because they come with not just the extra length but with holding tracks as well. 

     This layout works well either in DC or DCC.

     This is one of our SHIPPABLE N SCALE LAYOUTS. By that we mean that we  can take a layout as big as this one (72" x 30") and are able to send it out WITH FREE SHIPPING as we send it out in stacked sections. Click on THIS VIDEO and look at the pictures above and you will see how easy it will be for you to connect the sections together once you get them thanks to the use of Kato Unitrack Adjustable Track.

     In closing, a personal note from BILL BEIN of LoganSquareZandN: "I HATE turnouts from both Kato (N) and Rokuhan (Z), and I do not think you can back trains through Kato N or Rokuhan Z onto sidings with no derailments. I use my sidings for decoration only."

     All track is Kato Unitrack. We include all the track feeders you need, and  all turnouts are manual. We do not furnish any power controllers, nor do we furnish any locomotives, cars, or buildings.

     We offer free shipping. We do NOT accept returns.
