Helo susan,
HO trains never go up in value like lionel trains do. it is onlt as vauable as the person who wants it makes it. i have a car with universal conversion couplers on it and i won't sell it because it means i can connect any coupler to any othercoupler which is very usefull when running trains with different couplers on it. hope this helps. and also your son probably has the joy of trains in him so don't take that away. i remember the day the UPS man brought my train to the front door it was a bright sunny day and we i saw the box i didn't know what it was i opened it and i went nuts. i ran to the phone and called the hobby store to see if it was a train set you could add stuff too.and when he said they had stuff for HO train sets i was happy my mom took me to the train store and i got a amtrak train with two superliners. then we rushed home and i played with my train all day which continue to do today and i alway will.
