I have had a lot of trouble starting up with LGB MTS, however i am now convinced it was the people not the equipment; and LGB instruction are just about impossible to understand. Havent had any trouble with MTS for 2 years. But however; i am now going places with my MTS and track contacts that i had never even considered and I am very pleased to be able to do so. Whatever you pick look long and hard at what you hope to achieve in the future, as if you pick the wrong one you will regret it and will come to dead end and may have to start over. ie think about the future as much as you are about "now". My big interest is in operating track components rather than the locos themselves; as the MTS will do this better for you that you can do yourself. So once started the loco will look after itself except crashes and stuff like that. I operate switches all the time and my MTS reversing loops are such a joy, you cannot comprehend until you have them, one is ok but two in opposite directions to the main loop will give your layout a versatility you can not understand until you have it. It is ok to have your locos going round a circuit ad nauseum, but with reversing loops they disappear into a tunnel or a jungle such as i have and reappear going in the opposite direction and this is a real buzz for me. I am working on, can you imagine a figure 8 with three circles instead of 2 and that is what i have and with MTS and reversing loops and track contacts i will have my locos automatically going around all three in opposite directions all the time with no interference from me. Very interesting and with a lot of variety! In this i do not use my second circuit in area 3 but if i connect area 3 up to the middle of the reversing loop in area 1 by an ELL, it will make the layout more interesting by a factor of 4.
