Ok, so St. Nick brought me a train (not sure which one, going to buy one today). It will be HO scale and I am planning on using a 4' by 8' layout. This will be my first experience with trains, I'm 26. My girlfriend is the arts and crafts wiz and is excited about working on the layout with me. So this is something I drew up after some research. The outside loop will be for a passenger steam loco and the inner one for a freight train. Any help will be appreciated. Do I need a DCC system, what track to use (I'm thinking Bachmann E-Z). How much power will I need? What industry should I build. I dont need it to be accurate to the real world so no yard for me yet, maybe later.
I think the layout jpg is attached, not sure about how to put in pics though.
Thanks all!!
Greg
