Is the Metroliner set a good one as a first train set?  It says it has no

I think it's a question of what you want to achieve:

-Do you want a set of all the "train pieces" so you can build your own?

-Do you want a nicely rounded set which stands on its own?

If it's more of the former, then there's clearance 4561's, 4512's etc.  If it's
the latter, the Metroliner is a great set.
