ive been looking on the trainworld website and i think if i do order from some one, they would be the one. But ive firmly decided on the early 90s, i can still get a nice steam locomotive down the road, hopefully one of those nice new Bachmann Spetrum ten wheelers[:D] and use a couple old coaches for excursion service BUt in general it seems that steam locos are more expensive compared to disiel (its late and i cant remember how to spell that[:I]) and if i do model this era, and in a location similar to the short line in my town, i wouldnt have to go far to get the info and pcitures, etc that i would need for the model building, as i would need for some thing that is on another coast and 50 years back, tho the internet is a wonder. Id have to say that my LHS doesnt order from walthers, when i was there he had only 2 cars from walthers, he mostly specializes in O scale, when i can go to the LHS more often i will look into having him order me some stuff. i dont ever plan to order stuff directly from walthers tho, cuz as you said, their prices on their website are extremly high compared to other places, such as trainworld. also i believe standard hobby supply would be another good place to order from. im starting to work on a track plan soon, just a simple 4 X 8 with maybe a little add on for an engine terminal on the side. The one thing i dont want is "prototype operation" becuase I DO NOT want to fill out weigh bills and paper work, people talk about how fun it is to "operate" then they say its not "operations" if you dont do the paper work, im a sophmore in highschool, i dont want to do a lot of extra work for some thing thats supposed to be a leisure activity, i just want simpled, running the train in an oval, stopping, excahnge a box car from the sidding that goes to the warehouse, with a flat car or some thing that would be used by that place.
