The control looks suitably retro but, most importantly, actually works! Bluetooth is a fun option. With cutting edge technology and a blu tooth, my son loves his lionel o scale bluetooth trains.
Well packaged, easy to repack for storage, simple to assemble. This is pricey, but you're getting the goods with this set.
