I would not recommend you consider a roster at all to start, get just one loco or starter set and see whart you think of that. None of the units you are contemplating "do much" and you may not be satisfied with that after a while. I started off with an LGB Stainz starter set and have built up a really nice little fun train. I think I started with 2 carriages and now have 5 all different colours, with a postal van on the back, what a great little fun train it is but it is very limited in what it can do. I would get the starter set you are talking about but before you do; decide if you can, if you are going to go digital. If you do, all those other engines wont be worth having, believe me. My Deustch Rail Mallet Loco for instance, has about 6 onboard controllable function that I control remotely. Bell, whistle, smoke, headlights and internal lights, sounds of fire box opening and the coal being shovelled into it, steam valves, brakes and it goes on. It is just so powerful it can pull 4 litres of wine up a 5 % gradient and the sound can be heard next door, if I like. Having programmable accelaerating and braking is not to be sneezed at either and this can differ from loco to loco. If you go digital the standing sounds and functions are incredible, all digitally recorded and very lifelike and as you have 20 V AC across all of your track all the time, everything doesn't die when you turn the throtle back, You can operate points (switches) using the same controller; programme your points to operate in sequence, put two engines into a double header situation (for or against) and just so much more I just can't tell you here. So buy one thing and consider your position and if you make any decision let it cool for 3 months, so that you may not be sorry if you change your mind, I can speak from bitter experience. Experience it before you waste your hard earned cash mate. Rgrs; Ian Kawana etc
