New Bachmann g scale C-19 steam locomotive

This is the C-19 locomotive made by Bachmann Trains

This groundbreaking Large Scale C-19 2-8-0 model has many advanced features including:

• powerful precision-balanced can motor connected to an all-metal gearbox and gears with appropriate gear reduction combine to create an eight-wheel drive system with superior performance at realistic speeds
• equalized locomotive suspension system to provide super-smooth operation on uneven track
• electrical pickup from all drive wheels and both tender trucks
• advanced nonproprietary plug-and-play electronic printed circuit board to accommodate the control systems of your choice, including DC power, NMRA/NEM DCC, and/or RC operation
• choose track or battery power pickup, operation according to NMRA or Large Scale railroading practices, and motor power on/off
• choose either DCC or DC operation of the smoke unit, cab lights, realistic firebox flicker and ash pan glow, and classification lights
• two optical sensors, one in each cylinder, give you the option of adjusting the timing and count of steam chuffs
• factory-installed speaker, with wire pigtail, for easy installation of optional aftermarket sound system
• constant lighting of the LED headlight, classification lights, and cab light using soft white LED technology
• Johnson bar is connected to the fully adjustable inside Stephenson valve gear by a scale reach bar for reversing linkage that operates per prototype
• accurately reflects all the details found on the prototype road number modeled

This model performs best on 5' diameter curves or greater.

What i need to buy for making my first g scale layout? Using LGB, Bachmann or Piko sets

The first step is a starter pack, LGB, Piko, Bachmann sells the most famous starter sets, you need to buy one like this:

This set comes with a locomotive, an oval track, some wagons and a controller, it's all you need to run your train, but you can think bigger and buy some extra tracks to make a good layout. LGB offers bronze tracks that you can use indoor or outdoor, if you don't have place to make a layout you can use your garden to run you trains.

How to start a garden railway?

To start a garden railway, first you need to set the area of the layout,

In second, you need to put the track in the place you set in first part.

Third part, put a train to test the layout to see if its running well 

The last part is how do you want to make the layout decorations. Here is some exemples of decorations:
