Coupling of two Locos.

The media could not be loaded. In 1990 I bought my first N Scale Train, a Bachmann Trains - Super Chief Ready To Run Electric Train Set. Still runs good. This new one is just been updated to new couplers a small circuit board under the hood, and a 24 inch circle of EZ track. Also updated Controller. The circuit board may be related to DCC. The Loco and cars have great detail, and look very niceI bought Two of these sets over the holidays to take advantage of the sales. I was hoping I could run the two Locomotives Back to Back. I expected when putting them on the track in different direction and would run away from each other but was glad to see they ran in the same direction . So I coupled them together and put as many cars on a 34 inch oval could handle, 22 plus the two Loco'sThe video I posted, the first 4 cars and the last caboose car came with the set. So about the first 1/3 of cars have knuckle couplers the the middle third of cars have the older Rapido couplers and the last third is back to the newer knuckle couplers, with a transition car to handle each change of the coupler type.At the end of Video a Derailment happened as the Engineer started slow the Train down. A NTSB investigation determined that as the slowing occurred two Cars in the middle of of the train become unconnected causing the Loco to run into the back of the uncoupled cars. No damage was done to the Front coupler of the Loco or the rear coupler of the Caboose.The uncoupling of the two middle cars were of different manufactures so Coupler incompatibility and excess speed probably was the cause as the couplers unloaded weight from the pull as the train slowed.The Engineer of the Locomotive was reprimanded for speeding and unsafe operation of a Train and assigned to administration duties pending further investigation.Conclusion. On a large layout running these two Locos in the Back to Back configuration one could pull very long Train. I don't have enough cars to test this out though, and my bigger layout is out of commission for renovation work.

Good little set

Nice starter set. OK quality. Has been running daily for over a year.

Perfect set for our son's first model railroad!

After over a year of our kiddo begging to move on from wooden train sets/ duplo train sets, we decided to get this set for Christmas 2023. No regrets! We added some extra track to the deal and made an oval. It fits perfect on a counter we have for it and he's building a city around it with legos and the like. It's a great set for beginners (kid and parent alike) and set up was simple and quick. The train runs smoothly and I was impressed with the speed controls.

Doesn't like to Couple.

the locomotive is great and has no problem handling the load given in this set, plus a few extra car. the problem I have with it is that the included loco and freight cars do not like to couple with each other, while additional cars couple to it without any issue.

IMPORTED GARBAGE - Broken after second Christmas

I bought this Christmas 2019 to put around the tree. It was used for 20 hours in 2019. This Christmas (2020) I set it up and have had it running about 5 hours and it just stopped working. Voltmeter says that the track itself is not getting any voltage. I assume that the cheap, imported control box has a blown resistor. So for about $100 you get around 25 hours of use before it breaks. Enjoy your purchase at a cost of $4 per hour to run it. I will have to solder up a board or hook it to my Arduino to make it work again. What garbage.....

Adorable Train

This train set was very easy to put together! I just needed something small for my village set and this fit the bill!! It is very tiny but it's built very sturdy!! The only thing I didn't like was that it said that it was easy to couple the trains by just an easy push, that wasn't the case here. I tried more that once but I had to pick them up and set it on the other to couple it!! But once that was done the train ran beautifully!! I couldn't be more happy!!
