I know this topic has been discussed before but I just got my first LionChief loco, a Pennsy 0-4-0 switcher and just have to tell how pleased I am with it. it not only looks fabulous but it runs so smoothly that there is nothing to interfere with the sounds of the sound system. And so easy to operate. I have a small layout and use TMCC for all my other engines but this one is so simple to operate that I can understand why folks say a kid can do it. And the whistle and bell are killers. This opens up an entirely different world.
