Lots of buildings of use to N-scale railway modellers. Click on Houses to access the files. The rest of the site is interesting too:

This site was where I got my first model that I tried to rescale, the Sawmill. My plan was to get it close to HO scale for my cousin's layout. I failed miserably

Conversion

These are interesting models, though some are a little low-res and won't take so well to re-scaling. I will open the files in Photoshop - they open as 300dpi files. Then I increase the image size (see below), create a new A4 300dpi file and cut & paste the individual parts from the resized image onto the new file.
N to HO : multiply by 1.7 (170%)
N to OO : multiply by 1.945 (194.5%)
Trouble with rescaling upwards like this is that it amplifies any fuzziness and some things need some cleaning up and sharpening. A long process.
