Well my daughter cannot thank you all enough. My grandson was one happy little boy on Christmas morning. He loves it as well as the accessories and add-ons people got for it. And with office supply clamps they can stand it up against the wall in their city apartment.

I did have one question. I downloaded the instruction sheet for the 0-8-0 LionChief RTR Set with Bluetooth and the front of it said

TRANSFORMER RATINGS OUTPUT: 18v DC.

When did Lionel switch to DC motors? That means he can't bring his loco to my house to run them on my Post War setup.

What else does he need to expand and what will not work with these setups? I assume the 3-rail fasTrack setup is only using two rails. Where does he go from here as he gets older?
