<p>Hi Guys,</p><p>I recently bought a LGB G scale train set, I am bored of wating it run on a 3 ft circle, I would like to lay some tracks in my back yard and get some real fun out of it. I have approx 100 ft of track layout, can someone point me to any material that would teach me from very basic what I need to do wrt to tracks, power supply, controls etc ? </p><p>I have several questions in mind, I think I can manage building bridges, railbeds etc, what I dont know is what material I need to use for the tracks, should I buy LGB or aristo-craft, or is it cheaper to build tracks from scratch? what power supply to use, how to connect different pieces of rails for power transmission etc ... </p><p> Pointers to a source of information addressing these issues will be very helpfull. </p><p> </p><p>Thanks a ton </p>
