Review: Kato is the way to get started - Kato is quality from train to track for a good price. Catch it on sale if you can.
Review: The hit of Christmas - I'm very glad that I paid up for the Kato brand, it was well worth it. This was my first N Scale purchase. My whole family got into it around the Christmas tree, 3 generations, male and female. The cars are very well detailed, dare I say gorgeous. The engine is solid and smooth, going through the range of speed without any lag or sweet spot. I've had sets in the past where there is definitely a preferred speed, this is comfortable doing whatever speed you set for it. Only a minor critique, the track is a bit cheap looking but clearly very well engineered, it works really well and seems durable. Easy set up and take down in just a few minutes. To me that is a good sacrifice for the track looking a little "plastic". The cars are what people are paying attention to anyway, they are top notch for the price. I will definitely be buying more Kato N scale to build out a larger set-up.

*by B***R on January 10, 2017*

I'm very glad that I paid up for the Kato brand, it was well worth it. This was my first N Scale purchase. My whole family got into it around the Christmas tree, 3 generations, male and female.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The locomotive itself has a nice heavy feel to it
*by M***. on August 2, 2014*

Extremely detailed locomotive and passenger cars. The locomotive itself has a nice heavy feel to it. The paint on all cars and locomotive has a metallic sheen. even though its plastic. The light from the locomotive is yellowish and slightly dim. Running the locomotive at full throttle the flybar makes a atrong buzzing sound. The locomotive runs smoothly even at the lowest throttle setting. The locomotive is plenty fast and can pull all passenger cars with ease. The packaging for the locomotive and cars is great, looks like a book, but when opened has foam inserts to hold these in place securely. The track is easy to connect and disconnect and makes good contact. Its flexible enough once connected. You will soon be wanting more track to run the train. Overall, I am happy with this purchase.
