Yes, more pictures please

After selling or giving away most of my HO tracks and rolling stock i am slowly getting some stuff again. No time or place for a track layout yet, but maybe some day.. i do like the early Tyco (Mantua) 4-4-0s.
I would like to build some very early US railroads, maybe from the beginnings to before the civil war, or just a bit into it. There is almost nothing readily available, so you would have to "kitbash" to make locomotives with 'outside frame', like early Masons and such.
And the track should have a relatively "flat" profile, maybe code 75 or less for the visible tracks. I do not want to build the rails myself though, maybe there is some ready stuff available? Turnouts should have "hand throwers", so would have to "kitbash" that. Well, one can dream

Keep up the good work
