So, stepping out of my comfort zone. Did a little digging here and online a local dealer has this set on sale.

Good set for a home office oval??

Thanks!!!

It's a nice set. I have six Kato passenger trains, some sets and some I pieced together. I have added light kits to the cars, and I am glad this was possible. Today the light kits are LEDs, which have a constant light level.

Depending on what it costs, Yes, I think you can't start better.
How much?

I have that set and really enjoy being able to run it on the dining room table in my small apartment when I need to get a train fix but don’t want to deal with my o gauge stuff. Like most, if not all, kato products, it’s a simple but high quality set. I also added the lighting kit to the cars in my set and it’s quite easy to do.

$210

$210 isn't bad, especially considering the pleasure you will get. I bought most of my passenger stuff fifteen years ago and probably spent about $150 per set then. I am watching a UP train and a Burlington Northern set go around now. Maybe I am simple minded, but I love watching the lighted cars go by.

That is a good price.

Good news.............. you can stay comfortable in your zone.

Can't go wrong with Kato - it's quality stuff!

Bought the set today and set it up in about 10 minutes! Fits on my home office credenza perfectly!! Sure runs quieter than O.

Now to buy the passenger car interior light set!!
