I remember getting my first set for X-mas around 1988 I think. It was a battery operated set that I thought was truly amazing, but it didn't last more then a few weeks. <br /> <br />My first HO set was a Tyco Chattanooga Choo-Choo I got for my 9th b-day in 1992. <br />It came with an 0-8-0, about 6 cars including the "gravel wheel" boxcar, a billboard with a big black box behind it that produced a steam whistle, and a trestle set. <br /> <br />My dad told me to go to the trunk of the Oldsmobile and get these doll sets he picked up for a friend of mine, her B-day was a couple days after mine. Well I opened up the trunk, and like some weird kid, did indeed look for the dolls even after seeing the train. The dolls weren't there, but I wasn't going to leave that train in the trunk! <br /> <br />Alvie.
