I'm half afraid to bring up the brand names but I'm curious to see if there are specific brands that are to be avoided based on poor quality etc when it comes to trains, track, transformers etc.

Thanks for the tip on the books.

well, I'll just suggest: 'avoid train sets' the prepackaged boxes with (usually) an oval of track, a few cars and an engine. The powerpacks tend to be weak and the engines and cars of lower quality compared to even the same company's individual stuff.

Welcome aboard Hook, sold my 58 3B last year,

Ok it's killing me, what is a 58 3B? Year 58 I assume but the 3B I'm not familiar with.

Ok, CJ and Willys now those are familiar terms. I have a 93 YJ. So which Willys is yours in the pictures? I love the flat fender look, I may even flat fender my YJ.
