I always loved old model trains. I've never seen Lionel trains sold here in Italy. I don't know why. Here we have two main brands like "Lima" and "Rivarossi"; but there's another brand called "Roco". I also seen train models from a german brand, "Marklin" ;)

Back in my HO days, I had plenty of Rivarossi equipment, along with some Lima and RoCo. I have a prewar Marklin station knocking about in the garage somewheres.
O gauge in Europe isn't quite as popular as it is here in the States. I got my first Lionel train about 1967 or so, and seriously got back into Lionel about 2003 or so.
