I received a call today that the matching engine with LED lights has finally arrived !   I finally settled on the Christmas cars as opposed to the CP holiday cars.  One observation running them is the writing is backwards from one side of the train to the other,  I would like it better if it was the same.  I also wish the lights went around four sides of the boxcar instead of three.  When I pick up the engine I will have the complete freight set except a caboose which will be sorely missing.  Guess I can get LEDs from Evans and dress up a caboose to match..... I wonder WHY MTH would not have seen the need for a matching caboose?

You would think a train manufacturer would consider the sales possibility of a lighted caboose to match the sets especially for the Christmas freight set.  Would have been nice to have the engines for Christmas too, but.......I was totally excited about these but the way they were released  makes me cool to picking up the engine. And if I do I have a lighted engine four lighted boxcars and a non lighted caboose

I bought the RailKing freight cars this year and my grandkids LOVED them!!!  I agree that the absence of a caboose is an issue, but I bought a yellow CP caboose to run with the cars and even with no lights the set looked great.  I had a red CP -9 diesel to pull the cars with no lights but no one noticed.

Terrific set!
