    AWESOME!!!! Nice that you shown it assembled.! Like the run with the covers on and off. I was thinking that if you had the booster assembled, and then put the covers on the cars, who would know that there wasn't any booster parts under the covers????

    Great run-through of this set! I just picked up mine from Legacy Station this week.
    Pros: Lionel's ES44AC (Need I say more?) and Ex-MTH Flat Cars. Cons: The cheaper Lionel Boxcars.
    Note: I have O72 curves and the boxcar next to the UP ES44AC kept derailing the trucks because that model boxcar does not have a 'swivel' type knuckle coupler as its hard fixed. I had to swap my out from another car. I added another engine so maybe it's that. Oh well. Other than that great set with awesome collectors value like you said.

      For $1700 plus, a swivel coupler should have been a no brainer for lionel. I would have hoped that a train lover would have had some design and production input at lionel. A repeated derail on 072 curves shows lack of quality and improper customer care. Lets hope lionel people will do better. Lionel makes some nice stuff, but really... . Gary j

    Very well done video . An excellent set but at a truly excessive, rediculous price. $1700 plus more for addons. And remember, its a diesel engine. Nice, but keep this in perspective. We'd luv to know actual mfg cost and markup. Ive always felt somewhat expensive but somewhat affordable trains allows more of us train people to enjoys hours of fun, meet new friends, and learn new skills. This model is impressive, but a $2k model train isn't a routine thing
