    Thanks for another great video to welcome the Christmas holiday season, RJ! Couldn't be more appropriate than having the Polar Express running around a tree in the living room. Great quality on the video, too, from a smart phone. I didn't think you could get that kind of quality from a smart phone. When I commented on the sound on the video before this one, I unintentionally sounded ungrateful for your efforts. Nothing could be further from the truth! I admire your enthusiasm, taking the time research the history and your always cheerful attitude. You always share a great O gauge train experience with your fans. Thanks a lot!

So mine only running at Christmas it not over used.....but still a very nice looking, running set. You did well going with the LC set as the scale, nice loco, is WAY too much for me anyway! Thx

    This set makes Christmas. I picked it up last year, only downside is wanting all the add ons which required a bigger layout around the tree haha. Thought about the legacy version but wasn't a fan of the cars or the price just for a Christmas train. May upgrade to the newer engine in the future if they happen to make it again

  • @codystrainsnjazz
    @codystrainsnjazz 3 года назад +1

    I've got one of the original sets from 2004/5. There was a dock worker's strike in CA that year and they were hard to get but my dad got one. It runs great. Just has an air whistle. I've got all the extra cars and I will say, pulling all those cars, up steep hills, and at track speed did burn the motor up. I know they had issue with the first PE's motors but I'm sure I didn't help matters. Glad you finally got one. One more thing. Unless they have changed it, the decorative whistle on the engine breaks off very easily. I broke mine off with in the first few years I had it. Merry Christmas!
