Any railroader out there own this train set? I want to purchase one for my collection of trains,and want to know if it's worth the Bucks.I am a steeler fan,but I also like quality in a product and not just the name of an NFL team.Any opinions on this set I would deeply appreciate.
Thank You
Danny

I just have the engine out of the set. I was given the order form by a friend and I totally misunderstood the add. It was to be delivered to me in 3 parts. First the engine and track, 2nd delivery was to be a passenger car, and third was the observing car with the transformer. To say the least I ordered 2 sets, one for me, one for my brother as a birthday gift. I sent in my payment for $150 thinking I was going to get a good deal. I received my first 2 packages and I was excited, the engine was made by Bachman, and it runs like a dream. To amke a long story short I got billed again for the second installment, I caaled the company up and they told me I had to pay $150 for each shippment. I told the nice lady that I am returning the second shippment cause it was not worth $450 for 2 complete sets. But yes it is a quality train to buy. I still have my eye out for the rest of it.
