gereat to see a 10 year old getting into the hobby. im 14 and started when i was 7. started where you did, with the life like set. still have it, dont run it. ive seen an athearn or proto 1000 set with a *nice* looking New Haven Rs3 and 3 cars. with the price of athearn kits, you could add some more cars, and a few switches. <br />defanatly go DC. good to start with. dont plan on running more than 1 short train on the 4x6, otherwise it will just look dumb. put in something to hide the train when you get to scenery, so it can hide for a few seconds, then re appear. it will look like its going somewhere, sort of. <br /> <br />here are some small but still very nice layouts to drool over. <br />http://www.gatewaynmra.org/project.htm <br />Have Fun <br />GEARHEAD426 <br />[8] <br />
