Trying to set up for son layout with operating cars, accessories that I had as kid. System MTH and accessories mostly postwar lionel. Cars will operate on MTH operating track but ie milk car platform,Bascule Bridge will not accept track size or connect. Would not like to flatten metal base to fit, now caught to purchase multiple old operating tracks plus MTH adaptor tracks. combo of these will cost more than operating car. Any recommended work arounds.
Would appreciate recommendation on paint sets for weathering new building kits that appeared to be weathered but are shiny one color.
Thanks for assistance
