Well Tom you have been given some very good advice, but I would put in my little bit. My advice is not to buy anytyhing that you will regret later. A starter set is a good idea it is inexpensive and gives you a bit of everything. But don't forget when you get further into it you may not want a bit of everything and what you have may be not what you now want. So if you decide to buy anything, don't; wait three months and if you still want it then, well go ahead. My advice is to decide early on if you want to go digital or not, if so buy a digital starter set. This is a big ask I know; to decide this. It is expensive, very expensive but it lets you do things easily that you would not be able to dream of. The wiring, expense and extra planning once you get into more complex set ups is inceredible, compared to what you have to do if you get into digital contol in the early stages. I did and I am very pleased that I have, I can do virtually anything I like as far as control is concerned, no fancy wiring, very few isolated track sections, no irritationg restrictions. But digital is a mine field inits own right and I am not happy with the reliability of my equipment but I would not choose the other route under any circumstances. I emphasise digital is expensive to get started more than double the cost but as you go on, you will be glad that you have paid the extra. The advice to get in touch with Old Dad is good, he has a great setup, his mountains are to die for and he is good fellow. To MMS I was surprised that you thought that Canada was down under; I live down under and Canada is nowhere near where I live. Down under is in the Southern Hemisphere of the planet and mainly includes Australia and New Zealand and a few Pacific Islands. Regards. Ian: Kawana Island Tropical Railway; Sunshine Coast.
