Yes it is O gauge I forget the trainman line is also in HO as well. I am looking for some feedback from those who have got some Atlas O locomotives, from what I have heard is that they are pricey but well made.

I have 3 Atlas O locomotives and like them very much.  They are not the trainman, but the regular Atlas line.  I understand the Trainman line uses pretty much the same mechanicals & electronics but with a little less detailing.  Would not hesitate to buy one if they had the roadnames that I buy.

Saw thema t CTT headquarters this month.  They are great for detail.  CTT has reviewed them.  Switcher has been in a recent issue. Question [?] Think the GP will be in next issue.  They are well worth the money.  Atlas is known for quality.
