As I said in my previous post, I picked up a Polar Express 0-8-0 a few weeks ago. I purchased the locomotive from the Train Shoppe in Salt Lake City. I went there with my son and granddaughter, she is 2 years old. The front half of the store is the hobby shop. In the back they have a G-Scale Layout with coin operated boxes, put in 25 cents and a train will run for 2 minutes. I think there were 6 different train loops to run. They also have a 7-1/2 gauge train ride that runs through the wild west with bandits,cowboys and Indians. The guys there did a really nice job. They are also working on building a O Scale layout and an HO layout. If you are in Salt Lake City - check it out.
