I think 9v is most useful and popular, so you can combine train sets with RCX or any new coming electric or electronic sets. Zhengrong (...) (24 years ago, 29-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)

Dude! Just because you are going away for a while doesn't mean you have to sell off! Box it up and store it somewhere-- *some* day you'll be glad you did (or your future son/daughter/niece/nephew will;-) Think about it at least. -John (...)

(...) I'm still not sure - Could you please clarify what " K-8 " is/means?
