It all has to begin somewhere and you’ve already made the right choice on where to start. These simple yet fun and powerful train sets are just the thing to get you on the right path to building a model railroad.
Budget – Something for everyone
Your budget is something to consider. The Walthers family of train models includes three basic levels; Walthers Trainline for those looking for a great beginner train. Walthers Mainline – general hobby level and Walthers Proto for the serious modelers where only the best and most realistic models will do. The great news is that even if you decide to start out with our WalthersTrainline, you can advance to either the Mainline or Proto using the same track and layout as your skills and creativity take you further into the hobby.
