A great way to start
Bachmann produces inexpensive model railroad products that are nicely detailed. This is a great starter set, giving you the basics for a layout. Though it is labeled for 14 years and up, my 7 year old grandsons have been playing with N scale trains for 2 years. The main problem younger children have is connecting and disconnecting the E-Z track without damaging the rail joiners. I secured the E-Z track on a piece of plywood and let the kids go. They can do everything else themselves. If you are planning to keep the rolling stock in the original packaging, be sure to use pieces of plastic from refrigerator storage bags behind the cars to make them easier to remove without damaging them.
