First look at the existing layouts around your neighbor hood or modeling area. Second try as many different systems as you can. Third find a local dealer and buy the setup from him. You will be very disappointed if everyone else is using brand "X" and you are using brand "Y" because then you can't take your throttle over to their layout and run your train. I bought my system (digitrax) from my local hobby shop (Papa Ben's trains in Houston) and when I had trouble, I got a hands on solution. If I have to take my command booster to them to see whats wrong then they will look at it and see if it needs to go back or did I do something wrong (that's usually the case). After you understand what is going on then you can move on to Loy's Toys or Tony's. I perfer Loy's as I think that he understands soundtraxx and digitrax better then Tony's. When I bought my system I started out with a Chief (saved up my money) and I think that it saved me money in the long run. <br /> <br />REMEMBER 9/11 AND SANTA FE ALL THE WAY
