Thanks for the suggestions.  I hope I can see some more.

Rob, thanks for straightening out my nomenclature.

I briefly looked into some K-Line Trainmasters, and then I started reading online (and on this board) that they had annoying derailing problems on standard Lionel 022 switches.  Apparently, this can be fixed with some substituted parts, but I am really leery of buying something that is a project.

One more point on Williams reproductions. They will run on the same track as their Lionel Post War counterparts. That means all will run flawlessly on 031 and all except the Trainmaster will run on 027. Not sure about the Trainmaster but AFAIK it was never included in an 027 set only 031 sets and separate sale.
