Perhaps a Broadway Limited locomotive already factory installed for Analog (DC) or Digital Command Control and sound? <br /> <br />My first real engine was a Athearn Blue Box FP45, I had trainsets before this engine. I consider this engine a "first" because it had flywheels, all wheel pickup and kaydee couplers to be able to pull my father's trains... (both front and back) All the things I learned that trainsets dont provide. I still have that engine today. <br /> <br />IF you are into logging and are looking at a MDC Shay kit or RTR, be very very careful how to handle these. These engines are very nice to own but it may be unsuited for "first engine"
