The train and cars looks great. Perfect for running around a Christmas tree. Much nicer than other sets that may be slightly cheaper.
The train requires a significant number of batteries (6 C, and 3 AA), but last countless hours without needing new.
With the sales Lionel runs around Christmas, these are very affordable. We had tried a number of other sets, but this is the best for the price point. And probably the best line of train sets without spending multiple hundred dollars.
With multiple sets of Lionel ready to play trains, we now have enough tracks (all interchangable) to build a massive layout around the house. The track pieces have held up to being assembled and disassembled hundreds of times.
If you have young children (under 3-10) who love trains, these Lionel ready to play sets are as good as it gets.
First, I received the box with impact damage at one corner. The damage was only to the manufacturer’s packaging and not to the shipping box. I inspected the contents and found the plastic packing tray lid broken into several pieces at that corner. Luckily, the toy was not damaged. Without having a full top packing cover, I am a little worried about long term storage between Christmases.
Second, the toy did not arrive with any instructions. After trying to get the battery tray out of the locomotive for several minutes and being afraid I would damage the toy, I found the unlocking tabs for the battery tray. I have since found the manual online and will be printing it shortly.
Thirdly, the center detent on the remote forward/reverse throttle tends to wander. When setting the rheostat to the stop position, occasionally the train will actually be in the slowest forward or reverse speed. It can be a bit disconcerting.
