I am trying to decide on HO vs N scale for a home layout.

I have some HO stuff - cars and sectional track and some switches -
but not so much as to be bothered by giving these to my nephew and 
starting over.  (Even if I go HO, I understand that the nickel based
tracks are better to use than the brass sectional stuff).

N scale has the advantage of being able to pack more stuff per basement,
but what about things like:
	Realism
	Track and Car availability
	Scenery and the like

Thanks
