I’m new to the hobby and I’ve been thinking about getting into tinplate as well. Do you have any suggestions where I can look to buy tinplate trains? Also will the tinplate trains operate on lionel fast track?

Are you looking for command control with sounds, ect? MTH will be producing tinplate again within the next 12 months. There are two different gauges. Any O-Gauge tinplate will run on Lionel Fasttrak. Standard Gauge requires a wider track. At this time buying tinplate means searching for it. Side Track Hobbies, Patricks Trains, Perry's Toy Exchange and Trainz are some of the best bets. Of course Ebay will always have some. To get an idea of what is out there you could go to MTHtrains.com and look at some of the older tinplate catalogs to get an idea of what is out there. If you want to buy new right now ETSTrains out of the Czech Republic. They will not have command control but you can order them with sound. www.ets.cz/en/ There are a few dealers in the US that carry a few of there trains. If you are close to York, PA one of the best places to buy would be the TCA Eastern Division train meet is next Friday and Saturday.
