Starting my first layout

6 Replies, 6511 Views

Well this is it, i've decided to upgrade from my wooden railway to a Plarail/Trackmaster layout.

I have chucked my lot of wooden trains on eBay and hopefully the money I get from them I will start to build my blue (and brown, maybe even a little grey) track empire!

The thing is I have no clue where to start! What tracks should I buy first? Should I keep it simple and not buy stations, windmills, and other bits in the beginning? What shape should it be and what sets/parts should I avoid?

I have known about Trackmaster and Tomy for a while because I bought the some trains and track in a bag at a car boot sale a few years ago...
