 Terrible track May 3, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
With the slightest touch, the track falls out of place. Spend the extra money, and purchase the "O" gauge train set by Lionel. It is a much better product, and your kids will have enjoy it much more than its plastic "G" gauge" counterpart.
Good Solid Train Set April 6, 2008

It's fun watching those wheels and drive rods turn and listening to the clickety clack of the metal wheels on the metal rails. With the Fast Track system it is easier to make good track connections. The engine is nicely detailed, heavy and stable. After checking out some other train prices, I think this train is fairly priced. No significant problems after a month's usage.
 My son really likes it February 10, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My son really likes it, I just hope it is built to last a lifetime like prior American made Lionel trains. For being a China product it is very expensive. The engine afer some use doesn't start up as smoothly as it did out of the box and it doesn't seem to go as fast for the same amount of power. I hope this isn't a sign of poor quality...
Great train set January 28, 2008
We really like the set - it's very hearty, nicely presented, great paint, strong and appears long-lasting. The only thing we didn't like was the sound, so we jumped through a few hoops and found a separate kit elsewhere and custom installed it ourselves. Truly awesome now!!!
Excellent Build Quality-Truly As Advertised-Highly Recommend December 14, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Purchased 2 weeks ago. Train locomotive is very heavy and feels solid. The train has a whistle that is incredible and puffs of smoke that fill living room. The track took 15 minutes to place on tile floor and train placed on quite easily. My 3 year old daughter gazed with awe for a few hours. This is a high quality Lionel train set with a fine build quality. No regrets. I have been using it nightly on timers with christmas tree without any problems. Paid $236 with shipping-money well spent. The train comes with 4 figurines that you can place on train, locomotive and coal car with 3 cars, brass bell(nice touch) and track. 5 stars-Wife Very Happy
