-I love HO scale, but sometimes compromises should be made to achive goals.
+I love H0 scale, but sometimes compromises should be made to achive goals.
-N gauge and 1:150 scale models are the most popular scale in Japan, but this scale has too little details in my opinion. So I would choose HO gauge and 1:87 scale (or 1:80 in case of Japan), that are much less popular, due to available space restriction.

-Since japanese railways are using 1067 mm track gauge, which scales down to 12 mm or HOm gauge, other HO sized rolling stock should not meet japanese on the same track and therefore it should be OK to use HOj scaled trains. Coincidently HOm track size is the same as TT gauge: 12 mm. This makes the things easier, because HOm track is not widely available on the market, but TT is.

-Inspired by Japan trip, I want to model a part of [[railway_modelling:iga_line|Iga Line]] near Kyoto. Rolling stock brought from the trip includes several models of KiHa series DMUs. I will begin with it, integrating them into layout.
+Inspired by Japan trip, I want to model a part of [[railway_modelling:iga_line|Iga Line]] from Mie prefecture near Kyoto. Rolling stock brought from the trip includes several models of KiHa series DMUs. I will begin with it, integrating them into layout.
 But prototype line operates 200 series trains, which I will try to replicate from scratch later.
