I dabble in both. I currently have two small HO (or British 00) layouts -- one is 4x6 and the other is 3x4. I have a thread on this (<!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://www.the-gauge.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=380">viewtopic.php?f=46&t=380</a><!-- l -->).
I've just spent the last several nights trying to fix & improve the larger one -- so far, I've resolved about 90% of the derailment problems. The 3x4 is simply a side project that I might consider expanding later into a 3x6 layout. Alternatively, if we ever move house, I could join these two layouts together or simply add other modules to them, especially to the 3x4.
I basically have small layouts due to lack of space -- we live in a small post-war bungalow in Toronto. The reason I'm into HO (and not N) is mainly because I inherited a large HO model RR collection from my Dad. If I were starting from scratch, I would probably have chosen N, simply for space reasons.
Cheers,
Rob
