I have this locomotive, I love it, it is a good smoker, runs very well and looks terrific. My only complaint is that the left front pilot ladder was loose when I received it. Somehow it was not fastened down with whatever type of adhesive they use to attach them and the angles on the ends did not really match up all that well. Other than that, it is a great runner and has become one of my favorite engines to run, did I mention that it has great sounds too. If you're contemplating buying one, don't hesitate, I'd love to have another one.

Hope this helps and good luck.

I like the locomotive, it was just a bit too pricey for me.

Love this engine. Pulls 18 Pacemaker Boxcars and a Caboose no problem. Small commuter trains are its specialty.

Here is Lionel #1297 with K-Line #1295. The New York Central lettering/spacing on each is prototypically correct for that particular locomotive.
