<p>hominamad - I think you underlay a common beginner´s mistake. The Cactus Valley RR certainly has a fairly simple track plan, but is certainly not easy to build. The various grades require a high degree of accuracy in terms of benchwork and track laying.</p> <p>Another item is the limited operation such a layout offers. While I can understand the need for continuous running, you should be aware that letting a train circle around track won´t catch a child´s attraction for more than 10 minutes. It gets boring pretty soon. IMHO, the Virginia Central is a much better choice, as it offers both.</p>
