i am considering getting into the o gauge hobby and i have some very basic questions
first, hopefully i am in the correct forum
lionel was the only product available when i was a kid, but i see an o gauge distributer called mth (less expensive)
do people mix and match - for example if i were to buy a transformer from meh, would it work on lionel products or do you risk losing some of the bells and whistles (literally) - is the rolling stock compatible
another question is am i better served buying through the internet or working through a dealer
would appreciate any comments and suggestions
thank you
