My first ever train set was a cheap little approximately TT gauge set that ran on one AA battery (i got two of these sets at the same time). My first electric train was a Playmobil G scale set with a red diesel switcher that I got when I was about 4 years old. My first HO train, like oprr, was a Bachmann Santa Fe Warbonnet F9 that came in a circle set I got on a summer trip to Minot, ND when I was about 5 or 6. That same year for Christmas I got another Bachmann circle set with a CP F9. My HO collection kept growing and my next engine, which I got for my next birthday, was a Model Power CP 0-4-0 (I had always really wanted a steam engine). I still have all of these trains today in excellent running condition (even those first battery powered sets) and my collection has grown considerably since then.
