My recommendation is to buy a "good" system from the get. I cannot see buying a starter set that you will outgrow in 6 months. Buy a good one once and be done with it. I have used digitrax, NCE, and I own Lenz. Any of the premium systems are a good choice, and if you are wanting to use sound equipped engines like Broadway Limited, you are normally only able to take advantage of all of the bells and whistles, and other sounds from a good system. If you have a local model railroad club, you may want to see what they are using, and have them explain things and give you some "hands on". IF you are interested in joining a local model railroad club, there are a lot of benefits of having the same system. You will have no learning curve to use "their" equipment, and you will be able to bring your own throttle to play.
