This one is just what you need. Although it takes a little bit of practice, the magnet does a good job of adding realistic controls to my layout. No more reaching over the car’s with a tiny screwdriver. Now I can uncouple cars at the far end of my layout right where the brakeman is standing. I would definitely add this to my next layout. Review: Fits great under e-z track for my ho scale train track - Fits great under e-z track for my ho scale train track. Remember to make sure you order the correct size. ho or n scale is much different in size. I did add a couple of drops of crazy glue before mounting just so it does not fall off. after you attach it just put a drop here and there two at most where the magnet meets the plastic. ## Features - Fine Scale Details - Detailed Figure - N Scale - 1:160 - Conforms with NMRA (National Model Railroad Association) Standards ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003VTSTAA | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars (23) | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 0.48 ounces | | Item model number | 78998 | | Manufacturer | Bachmann Industries | | Manufacturer recommended age | 14 years and up | | Product Dimensions | 0.5 x 0.13 x 0.13 inches | | Release date | May 7, 2021 | ## Images ![Bachmann Industries Magnet with Brakeman Figure - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41hnZMUDmML.jpg) ![Bachmann Industries Magnet with Brakeman Figure - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/815fGvu4mmL.jpg) ![Bachmann Industries Magnet with Brakeman Figure - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ihp3zwVGL.jpg) ![Bachmann Industries Magnet with Brakeman Figure - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71kGNMQ8XqL.jpg) ![Bachmann Industries Magnet with Brakeman Figure - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/816lcXcZTVL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A realistic addition *by D***F on 9 June 2021* Any additional items to a train layout always add a new dimension.
