    This & playing with stock trains are so worlds apart.

    Dude NO... At the end of the day it's a train set for the Kids or a serious hobby for the grown ups.

    I just made the last payment on Conner's Xmas present.He will find this set up and running on Xmas morning.
    Sorry, pictures taken with my cell phone.
    He has enough extra track to cover 80 X 140 inches or more than 200 X 340 centimeters close to 7 feet x 12 ft. oval!
    This train will be pulling 10 cars!
    This O gauge kit has set me back some serious ca ching.

    The set comes with an Engine coal car, 4 cars including caboose. The expansion pack comes with 3 more cars and I bought the 3 loose cars 2 of them matching the cars that come with the set and the 3rd is a Blue Ribbon Beer refer car. for a total of 10 cars.

    That was not Z but even smaller.
    I am confused but T scale is smaller than Z and there is TT,ZZ and Z- also.
    Not sure the tiny differences.
    But at some point it seems nearly a flea circus.

    Great idea to have a model train set in the window of a shop in a model train set.
