Great detail, smooth running.
For model trains in the smaller scales, it's more important for the locomotive to have a well-made, smooth running motor. Otherwise the tiny engines lurch into movement very suddenly, and don't slow down smoothly. This engine can move very, very slowly and gradually speed up so it looks real for it's scale. It's still able to hit speeds that look ridiculously fast if you want it to.The snap track is awesome! It's much faster and easier than using the tiny connectors, and it snaps together solidly so the arc of a turn is set. You don't have to keep tweaking the connections to get the curve even all the way around the turn. The track is sturdy because it's got a molded-in ballast stone base that looks accurate and can be blended into your landscape easily. I'm used to HO scale which is about twice the size, but none of my various brands of track have ever been this nice. The only downside is that I will have to stick to the same brand of track to add on to the set, but that's fine with me. It's popular and available. This is the way to go.

Love this little set.
Been running it on the coffee table by the TV...I'm usually an HO scale guy, but this set is pretty neat...I already bought an extra steam engine and a caboose, and am looking toward the siding set...

This was purchased as a gift for a son. It's everything you would expect from KATO, very nice. Set up easily and ran well without having to make any adjustments at all. I would highly recommend this item to anyone looking to give as a gift or as a starter set for someone getting into the hobby.
