Every lamp on every tiny table lights up! They look stunning in the dark! Cheap too!!! [/quote] Very nice. But will them brit stuff run on American HO? I own a First run Kato B&O and I know the paint aint prototypical... but is was so well done it will go on the train when I get it built. I havent checked the eBay activity but they should not be selling for much more than 30 bucks or so. [/quote] Yup, they'll run on HO just fine - they're built to a slightly larger scale but run on the same track gauge (long story, involving oversized early motors and smaller British locos/stock). I've heard reports of derailment problems with the early examples, so make sure you get some of the more recent ones - Hornby have modified the couplers to fix the problems. Regarding the Kato cars - hope my LHS will have some in stock this time, I wanted one of the CB&Q examples but they ran out before I got there!
