Buying a train set is a matter of deciding what you want to do with it: build on it or just watch it toot around. We will help on this page at Train-Sets.net to buy a model train set for you.

Things You'll Need

• Model Locomotives
• Model Train Sets
• Model Train Tracks
• Tables

By the help of below steps you will Step One

Go to the toy store or hobby store. The toy store is likely to sell wind-up trains, called "tin plate" trains. The hobby store will sell a more complicated, electric model train set.

Step Two

Decide how extensive a set you want. For a child, a simple circular track without much scenery will probably suffice. For adults, things get more complex.

Step Three

Decide on a scale. The common scales for model trains, ranked from largest to smallest, are O, S, HO and TT. HO is the most common scale.

Step Four

After you've chosen a scale, decide whether you have enough room for it in your house - or if you need a smaller scale. Reconsider as necessary.

Step Five

Buy a small amount of track, the necessary switches and plugs, an engine and a few cars to start. If a kit is available, start that way, making sure those basic components are included.

Step Six

Ensure you have enough curves and can lay out a complete circuit.

Tips & Warnings

• Try to get trains and any buildings or scenery from the same historical era. Pick a time period that interests you; for example, the turn of the century or the 1870s.
• This gets addictive - and luxurious.
