I think of it as, if not a bargain, a dang good price. It does have an ABS body, and at first that put me off a bit, but I trust 3rd rail to provide its usual detail, etc. For that o get a scale, accurate, detailed model with cruise, sound, smoke, and all-wheel drive, etc. So I rate it as somewhere north of Legacy - all the features and Vison-like detailing. And if it runs half as well as the ToT's loco, it is a jewel.
