Hello all. I recently became interested in model trains when my wife bought our 8yr old son an N-Scale train set. After doing some searching, I found this forum and have been looking at some awesome work done by some of you regulars. I've selected HO as the scale I want to build in and haven't decided on era or anything like that.
I found the following set for sale on ebay and want opinions on whether or not this would be good to start with and if it will expand nicely with additional tracks, cars, etc.
Thanks in advance!
