What kind of train did you start with

These are some really good stories. I guess that I just can't compare to some of you about the passion that you have. One of the only things that I remember from when I was about 4 was a new HO for christmas in the late 70's. After that, I remember a 4x8 table in my grandparents basement with those same cars. The table had no scenery or anything else, just a circle with a couple of switched for my boxcar storage. I could only get over ther once a week or so, so I had to clean the track everytime I played. I remember my grandfather fondly for the good times we had playing with that train. <br /> <br />Several years ago, after my grandfather died, my grandmother asked me to remove the setup from her basement. I then decided to try to retrofit the layout with an N scale setup. Unfortunatly, lack of money and a new girlfriend put a stop to that. Now that I am married, and have a son, I am going to try to get that layout finished. I want my son to be able to remember back to his childhood about the good times that we had.
