whats the best Cinda of track should be used for a ho scale layout ?

ABC

Nickel-silver is the best (requires least maintenance for optimal performance), but with a little work brass and steel can work well. No matter what type you use apply some conductive lubricant sparingly to the track every year or so for best results.

If your loco is too heavy to lift, you'd better be able to ride in, on or behind it.
