Grand Valley

[Anonymous]

I'm getting back into the hobby after years and years. I found a smokin deal and just purchased the Grand Valley 4x8 HO layout, with the buildings and track. I can't wait to start building! I need to purchase a power supply for the system and since it's only a 4x8 and only plan on using 2, maybe 3 engines, I was considering purchasing Bachmanns EZ Command controller and a couple of DCC locamotives. Any advise on this set or controllers?
Thanks
Chris

Chris;

It will work fine for your application. It does not have the ability to program the CV's, but that is not much of an issue just starting out.
