I use Athearn, Accurail, Intermountain some kato and walthers for my Freight cars. I pick the best steamers such as the 0-6-0 from Proto(Life Like) and the Bachmann Heavy Mountain. Riverossi are ok too. (Any one wanna sell a Allengheny? lol) I carefully examine the models for suitibility of my era '40-55' and occasionally there will be a limited run car from the 60's sneaking around. Diesals pretty much run well just make sure they have flywheels, all wheel pickup and power to all the wheels. (And of course capability to upgrade to DCC) You pretty much detailed the lower end of modeling gared towards kids (Tyco, model power etc) Track is atlas code 83 nickel silver. And I use metal wheel sets in place of the wobbly plastic ones. (Cleaner on track too) Good Luck Lee
