What's up? I haven't really gotten into the "train" thing for a long time, since I was younger. My dad had decent amount of HO accessories. One year for Christmas, my parents bought me a "Transformers" set up in HO scale. It was pretty cool. We did the HO thing every year for Christmas for awhile. Then one year, dad got me a "Lionel" Passenger train set. Actually had that up out of season for awhile until the loco broke....and that was all she wrote. My dad ended up giving most of the HO stuff to my uncle b/c he had younger kids...and we're talking late 80s, early 90s.
Anyway, next time I go home to visit I was thinking about digging to see if I could find anything...and then eventually start collecting. What I was wondering if anyone had any opinions on "O" gauge versus "HO"....Also, I always kinda liked the switchyard type setup. I had one of those tracks that would decouple the cars by use of an electric magnet for my Lionel. Does HO make a similar setup for decoupling?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx
