Customer Reviews
We bought the CSX version of the Iron Horse at a local hobby shop and my 8 year old train-on-the-brain son loves it (we've had it for 2 day). At full-speed it stays on the track nicely, the engine is a very solid metal-plastic combination with metal wheels and a light in the cab. The hand rails around the engine are frail but designed to pop right back onto the engine (instead of breaking off) if slightly mishandled. Perfect size for a 6 foot Christmas tree display (a larger tree will warrant the purchase of a track expansion set). A far cry from my 1st HO set back in the 70's with all the little metal tabs that got lost and bent (yeah for E-Z track). You still have to be careful when connecting the track but it's a lot easier and sturdier that the old-version HO track. The box says 14 years and up, but my 8 year old has played with his grandfather's HO set and he's fine if an adult helps with the track construction and is around in case of electrical problem when he's playing with it. Controller has an internal breaker that will shut it down if there's a problem (red overload light signals breaker went off on the controller). Unplug and wait 15 minutes and the breaker resets.
We purchased this train for our four year old grandson. His Uncle is a conductor for BNSF and he loves the idea that this train is like the one his Uncle drives. We told him that this was a big boy train and not like the Thomas ones he plays on his own with. They have it set up in a special room and he can only play with it when dad can be there to supervise. The only problem is, he wants to spend hours at a time there. He loves it. Eventually he will be old enough to run it himself and play carefully with it, but for now he needs help. This is not a train that you would want a child to step on or treat roughly. It is very realistic looking and lots of fun. We also purchased the train crossing that has the arms that move down as the train passes by. It's so much fun.
