<p>Do you own any of the others? I personally own 3 of the Genesis Mikados. The only problems I have is the weight on drivers is unsatisfactory, and the lack of power pick up on the tender. The BLI Mikado has traction tires, which makes it an excellent puller. I don't have any experience with MTH's HO line. I do however own a 3-rail Light Mikado in O. It is an excellent piece of equipment. I do not plan on purchasing their HO equipment. That is all I want to say about that. As far as Bachmann goes, I might pick up the MEC one when it comes out. Ive had good and bad experiences with their locomotives, mostly power pick up issues, so we will see. </p>
