Great set for the money!
Awesome train set for beginners. Comes with a very large loop of wide radius (22”) track and a suitable number of straight sections. By far the best running Bachmann locomotive I have in my collection. It is not DCC ready but perfect for those who want a fantastically detailed locomotive and matching cars. Highly recommend

Loves it
Grandson loves the train daylight and he couldn't believe that he has now a working train he can run, he brings it every time he comes over with him, he's proud of this train

Cheap beginner train
Pros 1) convenient boxed set. Nicely packaged with everything you need 2) detailing is beautiful for it being so affordable 3) the lighting in the passenger cars is wonderful, and our little train enthusiast loves that 4) track is very, very easy to assemble Cons 1) engine did not work upon arrival. Had to take it to our local train store to get everything lined up, otherwise the wheels would not turn 2) cars are VERY light plastic 3) wheels on cars keep coming out of place, causing them to derail Overall, the details don't make up for the poor functioning of the set. If you can afford it, save up for the nicer pieces.
