I have a long consist of 32 cars. This car from Bachmann uncouples even when I put it near the end of the consist. The other cars in this consist are either Micro-Train or Atlas and they stay coupled.

Anonymous Customer - 01/26/2023

Will it fit my locomotive? Attached is a photo and below is the text of the info that comes with the traction tires; I only wish this info was in the product listing so I knew in advance if I was buying the right product! CALUMET TRAINS SUPER TRACTION TIRES FOR TYCO CHATTANOOGA AND 0-8-0 TENDER DRIVES. THESE TIRES ARE MADE TO FIT INTO THE WIDE GROOVE 0N TYCO 0-8-0 TENDER DRIVEN STEAM LOCOMOTIVES. THESE TlRES MAY ALSO FIT SOME LATER MODEL TYCO DIESELS. NOTE: EARLiER TYCO MODELS HAVE A NARROW GROOVE WHICH USED A THIN ROUND RUBBER WASHER AS A TRACTION RING. THESE TIRES ARE NOT COMPATABLE WITH THAT TYPE OF SYSTEM. TO INSTALL, THE TIRE MUST BE STRETCHED EVENLY TO FIT OVER THE OUTER EDGE OF THE WHEEL. ONCE PAST THIS, IT WILL SHRINK INTO THE GROOVE AND FIT SNUG. THESE TIRES ARE MADE OF A MATERIAL THAT HAS A SUPERB GRIPPING CAPABILITY. YOU WILL NOTICE AN INCREASE IN PULLING POWER AFTER YOU INSTALL THEM. They are a great value because they worked for me, saving an otherwise useless locomotive. They were not easy to install, as I had to disassemble nearly the entire tender for clear access to the wheels. I cannot speak as to how long they will last, but with 20 in the pack, I have plenty of spares.

Missing items during shipment

On time delivery but just opened to find track joiners were missing. They are quite small so I assume they fell out during shipping. Can someone please fix this

Engine works great, really cool engine. Just make sure you pay attention if using on DC layout. Burned up decoder board 45 min after putting it on the track.

A neat addition to my collection of freight cars. Quality for a Bachmann is ok, but can't beat the price. Good experience with Train Sets Only.

Easy online shopping. I ordered a Walther's mainline loco and was much cheaper than from Walther's.

Was defective out of the box. First Walthers brand loco I've purchased. Hopefully this is a fluke. Working with Walthers to get returned and repaired. I have five other locos across several brands which work flawlessly. Good experience with Train Sets Only...this isn't their fault.

Nice train option for young girl

Cute pink train set for granddaughter that lets her have her own train, easily distinguishable from her brother's, yet they can also combine sets for cooperative play. Easy for her to put together; was immediately a favorite toy at Christmas.

Why Trust Verified Reviews?

Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.

Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.

As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:

Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.

Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.

So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
