My only firsthand experience is with O/O27, and I have only just started looking at HO.  A couple questions for the many experts out there...My father-in-law just bought a Bachmann set and an additional steam loco for my sister-in-law's kid.  Now I know you get what you pay for and he did buy the cheapest set, but shouldn't we expect the caboose wheels to stay on the chassis and the hopper's couplers to stay closed, at least though the first few playing sessions?In addition, the extra steam loco he bought wasn't at the lowest end, and either I'm missing something or the steam fluid just doesn't work.  I wanted him to turn around and take it right back to the store, but he's the sort to just deal with it.  I hate to see him quietly disappointed, so I thought I'd look into it.Thanks for any advice.Randy
