Review: Awesome first model train! - This was the best gift!! It was easy to put together and super easy to operate my 4 year old is obsessed!! The tracks are smooth and everything came as it showed on the box. We haven’t had any issues so far and he’s already asking for more tracks! 10/10 recommend for a someone who’s getting into model trains!
Review: Perfect Entry Level Set! - This train set is great for our 6yo as an entry level set! He’s already asking for more tracks to expand the line lol. Very well made, and the tracks are easy enough for him to work with by himself. Keep in mind, our kid isn’t a rough kid with his toys—so others might be wary of that. If you bend the metal on the track pieces, it can interfere with putting the tracks together. Also a really cool feature that I didn’t even know about, the set has one piece of track that auto-aligns the cars onto the track for smooth operation. You just slide the car back and forth over the track and it automatically gets it seated, so no frustration with the train being “on” the tracks.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Affordable Entertainment
*by N***0 on December 5, 2013*

Pro: Affordable, easy to set up, easy to operate, decently detailed locomotive, a time waster. Con: Freight cars & caboose feels cheap. Runs a bit loud at full speed. A time waster. Verdict: Good starter set for newbie like myself. Just got this set for myself and set it up under Christmas tree. Set up was a breeze. The train was up and running in 20 minutes. Make sure to read the manual on track assembly. The tiny metal tracks and connectors need to line up and putting tracks together requires minimal efforts. If you are using more forces than closing a cooler lid to push tracks together, then track connectors are not lined up properly. Use your fingers or needle-nose plier to make small adjustments until they line-up, and push them together. It's a firm push, but does not require much force. Manual also stated setting up tracks where you want to lay them. This is to avoid twisting assembled tracks and un-align the connectors. With my setup, I was able to run the train at full speed foward and reverse without derailments. And this is on short pile carpet. Tracks and train stability probably would be better on hard surfaces like a plywood board, but on carpet I can feel the light rumbles as the train makes its way around the oval. Talking about the oval, it's about a 4' x 3' in size. For us it's perfect underneath a tree. But I'm already feeling the need to expand tracks for more variety. Even though I spent 3 hours just watching the train going around the oval last night, with no other track decorations. I guess this is how model trains get people to hook up. Once you have a taste, you just keep wanting more. Overall a good starter set that provides hours of entertainment at a very affordable price. One note: not sure if the locomotive is DCC-compatible so might run into some issues later when expanding. Bachmann's DCC controller supposedly is able to connect with the basic controller that come with this set. I will see when I get to that point.
