Paul, i am really a Hornby Dublo 3 rail devotee. No comparison when listening to these run. Dont need any other sound. However, like Topsy, my collection grew a bit. and i cant be doing with the thought of selling ought.

hi rob, dont forget T gauge, looked at 009, but costly. Had everything except Z gauge in uk. Added DCC; here. Keeps the mind active , dont you know.
