I know this is a bachmann site, but after having a look at my local hobby stores web site, looks like they ony have Walthers line. I did email them today to see if the do have bachmann.

any thoughts (pro & Cons) If it is a bad product I will have to buy all my needs and wants online.

Thanks
Phil

thanks bob, ray & Josh

After doing a lot of reading today, I'm going to go with a Bachmann HO.

Next step to pick the right start-up set.

When i'm looking at the different sets, some say DCC-Equipped,dcc ready does the mean, the others can't be upgraded later down the road? I was looking at the 36505 E-Z COMMAND® DYNAMIS® WIRELESS INFRARED DCC SYSTEM.

Hi All

I'm thinking of starting my first railroad, but before i start looking anymore I would like to know what the difference between HO,N,O & ON30 scale? which would be the best one to start with and build onto later on?

thanks
