Interesting question.
Personally I would like a set of a complete old western USA town including a loop of an old wild west steam train with cargo carrying cars and coaches for carrying settlers. The train would have working lights on and in the engine fire box and the coaches. The lights would activate by a photo cell so they would automatically come on when the room lights dim or be activated anytime with a switch. The town would consist of normal buildings of the times, hotel, Jail, Saloon, train station, telegraph office, horses and cowboys. The train would be the steam along type that uses real water from an authentic old time wooden water tower and produces safe, cool steam. Not only would the realistic steam bellow out of the stack, it would also shoot out to the sides of the front wheels like the real ones. I would design my own realistic rails that more resemble the authentic ones but are durable and easily connected. Somehow a cross between the Tomy, old and new Trackmaster. The town would also have a motorized stagecoach loop that is interrupted at one point by robbers. The whole set in the Tomy/Plarail scale would come with its own 4 x 8 foot table and sell for $19.99
