Just out of curiosity (not that I would ever think of buying something like that, NEVER...;D), around how much would one have to spend to have a "functional" modern train set?

When you say 'modern' do you mean the newer RC trains with the plastic track?

If so you would expect to pay £80-£100 (sorry I don't know what that is in your currency) for a top dollar VGC complete set.

Working engines on their own wil set you back about £30.

If you want the old style Electric/LGB business like this then it will set you back a fair bit more :)

Damo, I was thinking about something like the #4010 (specially) or #4020/#4018. On eBay the pickings are VERY slim, so I don't have a good idea of how much they would cost. I would rather have some original PM trains to be able to load them with klickies and accessories, but of course in the future some other cargo cars would be interesting - but for now, just the basics.

I bought a 4018 in very good condition and in a box for £75 last October off ebay.uk.

I got my 4011 a couple of years ago from ebay all in it's box for £65

But if you are wanting one, I'd get one asap as they are slowly going up in price due to demand and the fact that Playmobil aren't making any more trains.
