Pros & Cons
Pros
It even makes it over the hump from the hardwood to our rug. The quality of the whistle sound is excellent. When it stops, it's that big gush of steam sound that again is very realistic.
Cons
You have to turn it off and then on again if the train derails, each time. All plastic, cheap piece of junk. My son loves this train but unfortunately it broke after 2 weeks.
There is no light on the train has advertised. The remote’s light blinks red but nothing happens.
Highlights
Quality
The quality of the whistle sound is excellent.
I'm 62 and played with the damn thing every day.
He was very disappointed when i put the train away with the tree.
However, since it’s plastic, be careful with the front leading cart.
Packaging/appearance
Opening and assembly is pretty easy with instructions on the outside of the box.
Be extremely careful opening the packaging, the plastic is so thin and brittle it sliced my hand 5 times just trying to take the tape off.
Take a picture before you take it out of the box because it is really annoying to remember how to put all of the track back into the box.
Competitiveness
Purchased for my grandsonhe enjoys running the train
This is way more durable than some other remote brands marketed to kids.
