Has any member who pre-ordered their set received it yet. Any photos or your thoughts on the set?

I received the set today from CharlesRo. My only complaint was 8 windows had fallen out of the observation car only. Other then that, it's a nice set. The aluminum finish was perfect. No flaws.
How did you fix the windows and can you send pictures? Thank you.

I used gorilla glue on the edge of the windows. There's a channel in the window where you want to put the glue. You want to use the least amount of glue possible. I used a pin and dipped it in the glue and just ran it over the channel.
I had held out buying this set as I wanted to see if Lionel was going to do these cars in polished aluminum. When I saw photos of the Senator 2-Pack (released a few weeks ago), I placed my order for this set. I was scarred that Lionel might paint the cars silver to simulate aluminum like they did with the last run of 18" aluminum cars.
