  3. >Getting Started: Get a train set first!
  4. It is recommended you buy a train set first before you decide to get into model railroading. Train sets include one locomotive, a few cars, and some track. They are sold in most hobby stores and make great birthday and Christmas presents.
  5. Model railroading can become a costly and expensive hobby, so first be sure if it is something you really want to do.

  11. >I really like model railroading. What do you suggest in railroad landscaping?
  12. Learn how to make model train layouts. Plenty of resources out there. You're going to have to do some sculpting, painting, gluing, and woodwork to get started. Learning how to build miniatures and create scenary is a good start. You'll also need to get some figures if you want to add other stuff to your layout.
  13. Most hobby stores will sell the things you need for creating scenary to your model railroad layout.
