Thanks all for the replies. <br /> <br />"samart" when i said European and American locomotives i should have mentioned just type, i.e. 0-6-0T and 2-8-0 for the Americans and 0-6-0 coupled, 0-4-0 coupled, along with an 8 wheel and twin loco 4 wheel for the Germans. <br /> <br />What i meant was what company makes the best steam loco, Atlas, Athearn, BLI etc.....that is DCC set or atleast ready for a decorder. <br /> <br />"JPM335" 4x8 is a start but i might be able to talk her into 4x10. I already talked her into letting me put it up in the living room after most of the bench work is finished. Will have metal folding legs to help move it. <br />DCC might be overkill, but that's my middle name and i want to have the bells and whistles for a future expansion. <br /> <br />My wife and i are both WW2 history buffs and so a setup with that theme seemed only natural. So now i just have to find a track layout with just some historical value that gives me a river and mountain tunnel to traverse along with atleast a decent rail yard for troop and supplies. 4x8 or 4x10...am i asking for too much...lol <br /> <br />Thanks again for the replies. <br /> <br />Robert <br /> <br />P.S. Every time i tell my sweet wife that this really is an expensive hobby, all she says is.."are you worth it?".....sheesh...what can i say.....it sure ain't going to be no!!!.......
