We looked at the sets offered by Bachmann and settled on 2 or 3 that are plain DC. When I mentioned DCC to his dad, an IT supervisor for a big Wall Street firm, his eye lit up. However this is for an eleven year old who grandfather couldn't tell a hammer from a screw driver. I am looking forward to being drafted into helping to build a little starter layout.
That 11-year-old might be more technologically sophisticated than his grandpa thinks he is, especially if the kid's father is an IT supervisor.
Just sayin'. ...
