Re -Railer can’t afford luxury like that.To be serious, they go on the track, without any problem, simpler then my big boy, or flying Scotsman. I had anticipated they might be hard, but not so.Have 3 locos, one diesel and a little steam one, then a longer one with more wheels. The wagons are a tad fiddly, cos they are very light. It is heathers favourite , and we are very pleased with the way they look and run.All-locos have lights.. Iwould dearly like to add some more, but very hard to find used stuff at sensible cost. .

I bought peco flexi track, to sublime to marklin curves that I had with original oval. it’s much easier with marklin rails. Flexi has a mind of its own, on this gauge. I wired it rather than pinning. 2 ovals made so can run 2 locos at same time.

Locos are expensive aren’t they.
