I am hoping to sell it all, but I will part it out also. Here is the same ad I put on Craigs List:

HO Scale Train Layout

DCC ready Engines, most are Athearn type (Quan 10 - 12) $50 ea.

Rolling stock, most is Athearn type, (Quan 50 - 60) $5 ea. You must take some as a complete set of 5 for $25 total.

Many types of buildings also included as package, or $5 ea.

Layout is approx 150 feet long, has a duck under, lower lever staging yards, and a helix.

Also included with complete package is control panel for train track switching of inner loops of layout. I will also include the software to control the track switching of the entire layout. This runs on a PC.

To briefly explain this layout, all engines are wired for DCC control. All train routing is controlled by remote keyboards or the master station on the PC. The complete layout is ready to be conected to a DCC system. I used Digitrax for all engine decoders. Most all switch track are controlled by Tortiose switch machines.

You can have the entire layout and all controls for $1000. I have twice that in it.

When discussing engines, get used to terms like 4-6-4 instead of .90

If one of you guys buys them you will find out what cool things they can do, or how they hover. No steam engines though so you won't have to learn new terms like 4-6-4. You might have to learn about consist and Digital Command Control. That is very cool.

I think you guys with kids should all buy a few sections of track and a couple engines. You kids will love you for it, and you will earn points with your wife for playing with you kids. Win - win!!!:D:D:D
