Decisions, decisions...

So, I now have a partially constructed N-gauge model railway.  It is now time to start considering what locomotives and rolling stock to run.  The question is: English or American?

I am leaning towards English (mainly diesel) at the moment.  I like the locomotives more and I can run small consists with some degree of realism (running an American diesel with three box cars just doesn't look right).  There are other prototypes out there (Japanese is one that comes to mind) but I don't have much knowledge and experience with them.

A quick tip found out the hard way: I'm sure it has uses but Flex-track is a real pain.  Set-track is much nicer to work with (just a little more expensive).
