why are you selling
?

[cman]

Doing renovations in our basement

is the table the set is on attached to the wall? can it be moved intact, without busting everything up?

[dino_martini]

Yea, how would you move it? Im really interested..ive always wanted a train set..just never really interested in doing all the wiring and scenery set up.

[cman]

No it is not attached to the wall.
The moving of it would be the most difficult part by far.
Being 10 feet long it would hang over the edge of a standard box of 8 feet.
Also flexing while carrying it would crack some of the scenary so you would have to expect some patch work upon arrival at your location.
A U-haul trailer or long box picup would be the best option.

We could also cut the section in half leaving two 5foot x 5foot pieces but there would obviously be the scenary repair and some rewiring of the unit to the other half which wouldn't be too difficult.

The legs however are removable so the height of the unit is not an issue.

wow, good price.

Someone at my work recently bought a smaller one for 800 bucks just for the scenery.
