Well,I've got it my big head to start a garden railroad in our back yard...There are only 10 to 20 things stopping me,mainly the wife,kids(3 and 4) the dog <br />and a small area about 50 by 20...Most sane men would just go bowling or start a baseball card collection or something,not me I am just stupid enough <br />to risk divorce and bankrupsy to have a small train running around in circles <br />in the back yard. Ok its not that bad but close...I have a couple hundred stupid <br />questions to bother you all with so here we go...Because of my limited space <br />should I go with an "O" scale setup over the "G"? <br />Bonehead question #2.What kind of rope should I tie my wife up with while completing this? <br />2.What brand of train should i buy (What i'm really saying is I don't know what the hell i'm doing.) <br />3.Should I get a starter set first..If so what kind? <br />4.What's the best way to keep my kids away from the layout? Electric fence,cattle prod,A lifesize scarecrow made up like John Carry. <br />5.Where can I get trains cheap? <br />6.Will my trains melt in the hot florida sun? <br />All kidding aside I am doing a great amount of research into this via the web <br />but there is a great amount to learn so anything you all can teach me would <br />be great. <br />Thanks,John Miles Cape Coral, Fl.
