Sweetly pretty!
It sure is, the only problem is one of the doors on the rear car is stuck open.
So therefore it’s operating in “authentic” r-27 mode, just like the r-27s I rode as a kid! Moreover, that is five more operating doors on a single car than all of my premier mth subway sets (except for my manual operating r-32). No worries. I wouldn’t even bother trying to open it up and fuss with it.

They ran with a door open? Lol. Yeah, I'm not going to worry about it, I kinda like it open.
Very nice. Do the doors on both sides open? Can you open left or right side?

Thanks! Yes, the doors on both sides open but you can only have one side open at a time.

Only because it's going to be fixed for free, I'm sending the car back.
Question about the Legacy R27 subway set; Lionel's website says this needs O-72 curves, which seems huge for 15" cars. Is O-72 really the minimum curve these cars need?
No They operate on O36 But operating them at anything less than O72 puts a strain on the tethers

Great set enjoy, for the doors I posted a maintenance tip for the sticking door issue. Check the subway section in OGR
