Hi, everyone!

Hi Paul! Welcome to LUGNET!

Your help, advice and opinions would be most appreciated.  I'll stay in touch.

Larry has already pointed the way in his post, I thought I'd just add a
line: Try searching on www.brickshelf.com for the trains that have been
discontinued, if you intend to add some of these to your collection (thru

Present day sets are (again, in my oppinion) better for customization, but
old parts are not neglectable.

Have fun building!
