Hi everyone. When I was a child I inherited my fathers 1966 Lionel post war 2029 train set with whistling tender, a few cars and track. I was also given a G gauge LGB train set when I was 4. Neither of these train sets I have added on to and although I have liked trains since I was a kid I never got into model railroading as I had other hobbies. I now have a 2 year old son who would rather play with my Lionel or LGB set vs his fisher price toy train sets. I liked the fact that the G gauge track looked more realistic and of course the trains are bigger which is cool. However I will be making a basement layout and I think sticking with O gauge would be the way to go since space is limited and I feel the G gauge would not work out so well on a table and just not be able to do as much with the G gauge indoors as apposed to an outdoor garden setup which I do not plan on doing. I have also heard that O gauge offers more working accessories that the G gauge does but correct me if I am wrong. My thoughts now are do I stick with with the old style track or invest in FasTrack? The new FasTrack looks nice and looks like it connects together much better than old style and I like how its on a base. However I am on a budget and I know you can pick up old tubular track next to nothing and a lot of it at that. So my question is do I bite the bullet and start investing in the new superior track or stick with the old track?
Thanks
Vince
