My Rivarossi, while not equipped with sound or as well detailed, was (until my cat knocked it to the floor) an excellent engine. It could out pull my Trix Big Boy in the hills and ran beautifully when I installed DCC. The slow speed performance was as good as my Trix. <br /> <br />I know they are no longer in production, and the prices are going unreasonably high on Ebay, but if you can get a new model (with the can motor in the boiler and RP25 wheels) at a good price, I'd definitely go for it. Mine ran flawlessly for many hours till the cat finished it off. <br /> <br />The downside is there isn't much in the way of parts available, that's why mine lives in the engine house now. Perhaps if I see a good deal on Ebay....
