PIKO Taurus locos
Posted by markoles on Friday, October 12, 2012 10:35 AM

Hey all,

Anybody running a Piko Taurus locomotive?  Any quirks? Good-bad, whatever.  Looking for some general info.  I read the review from the 2006 GR, and perhaps there's been some update on this engine?

I have a Piko "Hobby Line" ho scale Taurus locomotive which I purchased last year.  The locomotive is a bit noisey but it is a good runner.  The model itself is not super detailed but for the price (around $85), I can live with a bit of noise.  The painting and graphics are highend in my opinion.  I really enjoy running it.  Piko offers several different liveries all of which are very nice.
