Running multiple trains on a single track can most easily be accomplished with DCC (of which there are many brands, but Digitrax seems to get a lot of good reports). If you run two or more trains off a traditional power pack, they will all go the same way at the (approximate) same speed. For the money that you invest in a kit, you can sometimes get higher quality stuff buying separately. In addition, you will get more flexibility out of buying parts as you need them or plan for them, rather than getting stuck with parts you don't really need from a set. Start with planning and research, and as you go along, you will find something that is really interesting and which may create ideas for a layout for you. I have found the model building aspect to provide great stress relief. Good luck, and don't be afraid to ask questions. Andrew
