Jeff, <br /> Looks like you're getting some very solid and good advice here. I can tell you that I was into model railroads some 30 odd years ago and the biggest layout I made back then was on an old 4x8 sheet of plywood. I had alot of fun with that layout. I recieved a small HO scale train set for Christmas last year and the bug bit me hard. I have the good fortune of a having a friend who gave me his recently deceased Father's collection of Model Railroader. Issues beginning in May of '48 through August of '95. I cannot begin to tell you amount of excellent information about Model Railroading I've seen in these magazines. I have started on a buying binge and have enough equipment to field a very nice layout right now but I have'nt laid the first rail, (my wife says I have more money than sense and at this point I have to agree with her). I guess the point I'm trying to make is follow the advice these guy's are giving you and decide what you want to model before you do what I did, spend money frivolously.
