I wouldnt either , for that money you can buy a train with 3 passenger wagons and a train station and rails for it ...

I never understood why this LGB stuff is so expensive. It is just plastic like playmobil and the plastic even feels cheaper.

OcCre Tram Kits (are cheaper)

OcCre-Kits are a little cheaper [KLICK!]. But you need a motor in addition. I would prefer a playmobil-motor (it's cheaper; OcCre-Motor is very simple and weak: only 1 axle is motorized: for 117,50 € or more).

Prices here [KLICK!]

They look very interesting but are still very expensive when you add in the motor.  My favourite is this one:

as it reminds me of the Manx Electric Railway here:

especially if it had the power pick up of this one rather than the catenary type:

Oh those are pretty. Its too bad they need to be modified with motors. How do they look/fit with Klickies ?
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

I have an account so if you would be able to provide direct links I could see them that way. With out knowing German it is quite time consuming to search and time is not on my side. Even with the translators it is difficult :-[

Thank you zugpferdchen :**:
