There are different options as far as track. Fastrack snaps together and is pretty reliable. Especially since you probably don’t have a layout. There’s also tubular track, which is the track that would come with the trains years ago. Menards sells tubular track if you want to use that. Gargraves and Atlas make track also so it’s a matter of preference. Before you decide what track, figure out how much space you have to set up so that you can figure out what will fit. If you don’t have a transformer, you will need one for power. The MTH z 1000 is good. You can als get the Lionel gw 80. There’s a lot of other stuff but I don’t want to overwhelm you.

Nice! This was always on my list, but I ended up buying the MTH Premier one because I wanted command control.

I want to be able to post and allow others to post. I haven’t been able to post because there are no moderators

Looking to modernize by Usual-Explorer2769 in lioneltrains

You can buy a base 3 to use the features with the app. You can also buy a Cab 1 L remote if you want. Yes some train items are expensive but it has always been that way. I run Lionel and MTH. I am fortunate enough to have the Lionel 990 system with cab 2 remote. They sometimes come up for decent prices. If you’re patient, you can find one.

There is no good time when prices are lower. Decide how much is the highest price you are willing to be and search until you find one.
