    How do I get started?

    Where abouts in T.O. are you Spitfire? There are a few HO clubs around. I agree with Matt - talk to someone at your local hobby store. And hey, we're all here too )just don't ask me about wiring! If you've got experience with dioramas, it shouldn't be that hard to move up - plan a layout...
