@TouchdownLegend Thankyou.

@GeEkOuTgAmErS HO is probably the best scale to start out with, it's small, readily available and cheap. Personally, I started out with G scale, but it can be expensive and needs a lot of space. (Mine's a garden railroad)

@GeEkOuTrAmErS how much room do you have?

Hi, I am planning on building my own model railroad based on a british countryside during the mid-1940's, The only problem is that i have never done a model before and can't decide or understand how the scales work. Could anyone reccomend what scale is good for beginners and possibly explain them too? Thanks.
