Very nice starter set.
Got this starter set last September 2024. Added a second P42 locomotive and a baggage car. Runs very well. Very smooth operation. Looks good on my little layout.

Great Amtrak model
This is a great way to start recreating an Amtrak train in N Scale. It's not an entire model railroad in a box, but if that's what you want just add a track set and a power supply. The back of the box has all the info. There are several choices, but http://www.amazon.com/Kato-USA-Model-Train-Products/dp/B000NNJYCE is a good starting track set and http://www.amazon.com/Kato-USA-Inc-Power-Pack/dp/B000BMCVPE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1395516325&sr=8-1&keywords=kato+power+pack is a good DC power supply.The P42 locomotive is the backbone of Amtrak's fleet and has pulled most of their trains around the country since the mid 1990s. The locomotive model is accurate, well detailed, and runs incredibly well. It's quiet, smooth, and looks great. I particularly like the lit number board, headlights, and ditch lights. It's easy to add sound and digital control, too, if you use DCC on your model railroad.The coaches and sleeper are also beautiful, accurate models which roll smoothly. It's easy to upgrade them with lighting kits, and they already have fully detailed interiors. Additional cars are available which can expand the train to any size desired.Kato's N Scale trains are easily my favorites. They aren't cheap toys competing with the less expensive sets you'll find at big box stores. Those sets typically run poorly, look cheap, and don't last long. This set, on the other hand has beautiful, well engineered models which are a real pleasure to collect, display and run. Anyone who loves trains will appreciate these models for years to come.

Quality
This is KATO which means quality and beauty. Out of the box it is smooth. Attractive and sleek, it is realistic. I am a huge N scale fan and this train does not disappoint.

Awesome set
-Kato trains are well built.-This Amtrak set is built well and really exact paint scheme.-you can run Bachmann on these tracks but if you run a Bachmann engine with sound option, it doesn’t work well on these tracks

Great running train
Kati products are great! Smooth running and great details for a reasonable price. What more could you ask for, other than more Kato trains and track.

the cars derail easily.
Although the locomotive is rock solid, the cars derail easily.
