I remember someone on another forum building the woodland scenics kit in N-scale, but imagine it would be pretty much the same for an HO one. <br /> <br />He really liked it, and Woodland Scenics has some of the best products. I think if you price the parts separatly they come to a little more than the kit, so the kit is a reasonable cost. One thing about the kits is you know you have all the basics and you won't be making 5 or 6 trips to the hobby shop for little peices of something here and there that you didn't count on, provided you have all the necessary construction tools up front like glues, etc. that may not come in the kit. However, if you want to go as cheap and quick as possible, and you at least like the trackplan, buy the Woodland scenics risers to do the tunnels and elevations because they will make it so much simpler than cutting your own risers, then buy the track kit from Atlas to corrospond with what you have done so far with the risers and roadbed and get that up and running. Then you can take the scenery at the speed you want, with the parts you want to use. If I remember right the kits come with a lot of scenery materials and mountain supplies that may not be what you really want, so that is another thing to consider. <br /> <br />On another tangent, I put together an RC Airplane once with my dad, and man was I glad I got the 90% prebuilt kit that still took us 2 months to finish. I guess they make kits for a reason...
