Acurails are great kits. I only own a couple but like the ones i have. That have finer detail than their athearn and roundhouse counterparts. They are easy to put together and not too expensive. (although i've got all my acurail stuff used). <br /> <br />I also like athearns and roundhouses (now owned by athearn). They dont have as good of detail i feel, but are still nice cars and are all easy to put together. I have a ton of both, many of which i have picked up used. they can usualy be found relitivly cheep at train shows. <br /> <br />As for others i really cant say too much. P2Ks and Branchline blueprint kits are great, but a LOT more work to put together, and a good bit more expensive. <br /> <br />All in all theres a lot of options, and i would not stick to one brand, but instead get a good mix. <br />... just my thoughts <br />~matt
