I love this HO layout! It is only a little more expensive than a basic oval and much more interesting. The track assembles very easily. And, the track provides a great variety of pieces that can be used to support building a larger layout. The only reason i gave it 4 stars rather than 5 is that both right hand manual turnouts did not function properly (when the switch was thrown the track did not move….. inspection revealed weak switch spring wire). I sent these to Kato for warranty repair per their request. Warranty repair has a 6-8 week turnaround so their customer service rep told me they will send me new replacements.

Novice railroad builder. Item descriptions were good but i could have used more detail on how item worked (especially power supply and extension cables). TSO was excellent and delivery was quick. Any concerns that i had were not with TSO, but minor concerns with the product manufacturers.

The locomotive runs smoothly and the motor is relatively quiet. The detail is good. However, the leading and rear road wheels are light and have no weight to keep them on the track over turnouts and crossings. Regardless, the locomotive is a good deal for the price, especially for getting someone started with model railroading.

This is the standard power pack for Kato track. Too bad that you need to buy switches that attach to it to support track switching operations. The instructions do not provide details on how to support various switch connection options. It has a light plastic housing. It works very well for my small 4x8 HO layout.

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.

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.

just discovered this! Very happy with purchase.

D. RICE - 01/18/2023
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

Fantastic selection
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.
