Why on earth do they run all the trains far too fast? Good modelling spoilt by ' train set' speeds!

Bit of a sweeping statement, but doesn't most N gauge need plenty of beans?

The average, off the shelf loco, only seems to have 2 speeds - stop or Go - quickly!

Well I've seen plenty of better controlled N over the years! The realistic running speeds of the trains is just as important as the static part of the layout.

On the first N Gauge layout the owner had kindly let some young visitors to the show have a go at running the trains (which happened to be the time I was filming the layout). Was nice to see the exhibitors getting Children and their Parents involved
