Starting them out with a less expensive trains is a just in case and I don’t worry too much about it. I tell these young folks that if they can take care of these trains they will get a chance to move up into better stuff. (Unlike one of my Model Railroad butties where his throttle is set on fast no matter what.. In his case he has speed limits set in place… Unlike the the young folks that come over.) I will continue this later in the month where I will have 3 young troops come by with their Mom and they will also have their chance to run a train. How better to get interest built up in this hobby than have hands on experience. There is a good reason to keep cheaper stuff around and so far I have had good luck.
