I am not sure that my last post went thru so bear wtih me if this is a repeat. I have an L-shape layout of 2 4' x 8' area's connected by a 2' wide river. The scale is HO. I am normally into the scenary, and not so much the train running, but do like to be accurate. I have 2 boys ages 7 and 9 and they would like to see something moving around the track. The track layout is a single track around the outside of the complete layout with 1 spur going down through the city side of the river (one side of the 4x8 is all Industrial city, and the other side of the river is small city surrounded by mountains. The engine will pull 2-3 box cars, logging flatcar or two, 1 passenger car and a cabbose. I am looking for something in the 60-70 era style since I am using mostly Cambell scale buildings of paper and wood. The price range is not to important , other than I don't mind adding a few extra details to the engine for more authenticity, but don't want to completly assemble the whole engine. $150 price range and up but nothing in all brass that you would assemble yourself. I would not mind weathering the engine, but not painting it completly. Not looking at steam either. Son't know enough about DCC and only the 1 train would be running. I like to think the area that my layout would be is Washington state to Montana area since there will be mountains, and lots of trees. If this is not enough info please let me know. ateneyck@txk.net
