Bachmann Trains Pegasus Ready-to-Run HO Scale Train Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)In the era of high speed, discover this miniature train, which gives the third dimension to the images of ancient prints that have always fascinated me for the enthusiasm emanating thinking of the first passengers who suddenly met the future, is how to make a jump in the past. Compared with the trains today, looks like a toy, but his whole look is a masterpiece of simplicity to the early days of steam traction. The box, then, reminiscent of those that once contained a wonderful toy for a few lucky owners. The painted figure on the lid already introduced to the magical world of the railroad (and the coal soot that was deposited on the faces and clothes, was the real cosmetic amalgamating the passenger with the train).

Lionel Santa Fe 0-4-0 Switcher Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great Lionel Train to play with. However it does not smoke worth anything! It came with sound which was not advertised in the description so that is a big plus. It also has to figures in the cab for more detail. The lights work well and it has a great back up light. If anyone knows how to turn up the smoke unit it would be nice to find out how to do it. One point of intrest is the fact that Lionel has forgot that children save their money to buy new product and they are not producing trains in the price line that kids can afford.

Bachmann Trains Pennsylvanian Ready-to-Run Large Scale Train Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bachmann was the first company to make Large Scale (Garden-Sized) trains available for a reasonable price. The locomotive pulling this train has been redesigned about six times since those days, and the coaches have been upgraded, too.
Bachmann has offered this set as a "special offer" or "limited edition" from time to time, but it is now available as part of their 2009 lineup. The train is big enough to draw attention in your back yard, or to cause jaws to drop if you put it around your Christmas tree. If you get this to run outside, though, save the track for indoors - you'll need sturdier track, like that from AristoCraft, to hold up to real weather.

Lionel G-Gauge A Christmas Story Train Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Even going in with low expectations for this train, it still disappointed. I knew I was getting a cheap, overpriced plastic train, but I was hoping the Lionel name would make it better than the $50 hardware store variety of trains. I was wrong. The one I got was very loud running on the tracks (not a tolerable/natural sound either) so you could barely even hear the cheesy recorded sounds that you are supposed to be listening to. My wife and I thought about returning it and getting another in hopes that it was a product defect, but decided that even if the loud track noise was remedied it was still too low of quality for the price. Bottom line. If you want a cheap plastic train there are cheaper options out there. If you want a quality train, this isn't it. Just for the record we did end up buying a regular O scale Lionel train and it is fantastic. More expensive and smaller than we were hoping, but much better quality. Not sure why Lionel allows their name to be placed on this product.

Bachmann Trains Durango and Silverton-Passenger Ready-to-Run Large Scale Train Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a classic model of a classic locomotive and passenger car set. The last issue of this product has been unavailable for about 2 years. Now it has been brought back so a new "generation" of garden railroaders and "Rio Grande" fans can enjoy it.
The Denver & Rio Grande Western (D&RGW) started as the Denver and Rio Grande, a narrow gauge railroad with small equipment and big ambitions. The D&RGW eventually became the largest and one of the longest-lasting narrow gauge railroads in the world.
This train represents the Silverton Branch line, which was carved out of sheer canyon face high in the Rocky Mountains. This train is pulled by the popular Baldwin 4-6-0 steam locomotive (with operating headlight, smoke and speed-synchronized sound).
The yellow and black "bumblebee" paint scheme became popular in the twentieth century. The locomotive pulls two passenger cars that represent the best any railroad had to offer between 1860 and 1889.

Built originally as a mining line, the scenic value of the Durango & Silverton was quickly recognized in passenger service. After surviving natural disasters, wars, and financial instability, a determined staff (and starring roles in several Hollywood movies) promoted the tourism that ensures the line?s survival to this day. Now recognized as a National Historic Landmark and a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark, the Durango & Silverton continues to provide year-round tourist service.
