I know I probably should ask this question in lugnet.trains, but then
I'd get suggestions that were unavailable in the UK.  So I hope people
don't mind me asking here.

I'm looking to get into Trains, what would be a good set to start with?
I know that the only set generally available is the new Express one but
is there an older set I should look out for?

I don't need anything fancy, just something I can set up in my office at
home and play with when I'm working (or not :-).

All suggestions gratefully received.

Neil.
