when i buy new i go kits... most. im a broke collebge student, but some how still manage to get a lil money to spend on trains. i mostlay buy uses (kits and alreade built up kits). the few that i have boughten new have all been athearns or MDCs. i just cant bring myslef to fork our more money for a car that is alrealy built when i can get simular for cheeper and have a good time building it. as for specific prototypes, i wish everthing was a kit so that i could get cars such as walthers centerbeam flat cars cheeper. the only advantage that i see RTR having is that they stick more detail on, which i wi***here was a way to do on kits. <br /> <br />as far as engines go i honeslty wish i could save a few $$$ by getting them in a kit. most all the deisel companys either make their engines in RTR or almost RTR. i honelsly would not minde saving a few dollars and puting the whole thing together. i usualy take all my engines apart after i have had them for a month or so anyways.
