I was thinking about getting back into model trains recently now that im older. Was surprised to see the vast majority of stuff is ready to roll now. The old blue boxes are gone but their are a ton of them on ebay unfinished.

Me and my brother used to have a really amatuer circuit layout built on thin plywood with whatever 00 gauge Hornby sets we could get cheap at the time + some accessories and other locos. Since dismantled but kept all the parts with my folks and would love to rebuild into something more professional and modular/easy to store away. I would definitely look into getting stuff preowned + 3D printing if I were to start from scratch now though desu.
You should check out model railway exhibitions or even just YouTube, loads of layouts look astonishingly good. Someone made a step-by-step tutorial series recreating the Thomas creator's layout.

Going to my first open house at my local club. Really want to make a good impression and see what the members are like; it should be pretty casual since they added Thomas to the flyer pictures.
