robmik. <br /> <br />My preference would be to construct a British Rail (British Expat!) garden layout - but shipping in products to Honduras from the UK can prove difficult and expensive. I do prefer kit building, but to date have not found anything reasonably priced for outdoor use at either 1:29, 1:24 or 1:22.5. (below $600 for a scale locomotive for example). <br />The North American market is nearer and, to be honest, there is far more variety of products and suppliers than the UK. Prices are also considerably less! <br />I will not be starting construction till later in the New Year so I am not limited to choice of preference as yet, though it will be steam era based. I will certainly check out LGB Products and suppliers. <br />While sorting through gauge lists I kept coming across references to "gauge 1" and "gauge one" (this from the UK). Are they both 45mm? The UK reference seems to point to 36mm - still more confusion!
