I took two N scale freight cars cut the roofs and set the minifigs down in
chairs. On the floor of the car I Hot glued (gasp!!!!) a 2x3 plate to put
the chair on.  The minifigs fit perfectly.  For track I used Kato Unitrack
mostly because of the way it is made it will lie flat on the LEGO plates and
not move around.  Unfortunately this layout has been dismantled due to us
buying a new house :(

That is cool. Now, all you have to do with N-scale is what John Neal did with
the HO scale. Build N-scale LEGO trains on N-scale bogies and motors ;) That
will bring the 2-wide LEGO model train building art to its ultimate conclusion:
LEGO model trains for minifigs!
