Reply to "Brand new to the hobby-need some guidance"

Hi Rusty,

I've seen the issue of 148 turnouts adapted to S scale referenced before, but not explained. Any idea why Fox Valley would choose to make 138 code track?  Is this size a better compromise to allow both wheel sizes to run? 

I'm trying to figure out which way to go. I really like the look of scale wheels and couplers. I like a lot of the Hi-rail equipment. I haven't even gotten to the issues of control systems. After I select the track system, wiring and control are next. I've done some searches here and generally on-line. Are there any good books anybody can point me to? 

My next stop is to my local shop, Des Plaines Hobby, to grt some advice and buy some equipment.

Thanks

David
