Has anyone received the new Lionel Pocahontas Passenger Set? If so, any reviews or photos?

I put this on here yesterday. Train had just arrivedth but we had told my grandson that he could open it. He was home throwing up when it came and he asked us to wait. Probably tomorrow. Will put here as soon as we get it opened.

Didn't Eric already post a video of the train in action, some days ago?
If you missed out on the Lionel set, GGD is producing an extremely accurate Powhatan Arrow set. At 5 cars this will be a nice set that one can run on a home layout as well as at a larger club layout.
The website has the engineered drawings to give you a very clear picture of what the final set will look like.

Bill,
Please post some pictures of your Grandson opening his P-Train set, I would love see the new P-Train and the little guy opening it.

Here is short video clip from Eric's Facebook page of his Pocahontas set that he recorded this past weekend.

I am still waiting for Bill's pictures. My dealer, near Boston, cannot deliver my set due to the snow storms. Eric's video was great though. Thank you!
Here is excellent video from Nick PghTrainFanatic, a forum member. He did outstanding job on this video. He sometimes posts videos here, but I have not seen him post this one.

Thanks for posting the video of Nicks train running and its a WOW. Also Brandons pictures are awesome. I get my 611 in two weeks, and I am excited. Lets keep em rollin! Happy Railroading.
Did anyone receive their Pocahontas set from Charlie Ro yet? The website is still accepting orders, and it's now showing an ETA to their store of 3/10/2015. I know those guys in Boston are getting walloped with one snow storm after another lately, and that's gotta wreak all kinds of havoc with shipping/trucking. So waiting a few more weeks while folks in New England dig out from Mother Nature's wrath is more than understandable.
Stay safe up there, folks.

Mines on the way from Nicholas smith. Now I will have two 611's. I don't know if I'll keep them both or sell the TMCC version.
From what I heard from Charlie Ro, they are having shipping problems due to the snow storms in Boston. This is understandable even though I have been waiting years since I ordered this set from the 2012 catalog. May need to wait till the Spring thaw.
Thanks kjstrains for posting Nicks N&W Pocohontas Presentation Video. WOW, It's Fantastic, And his Scenery/Layout is Awesome. Looks like Lionel has Enhansed There Smoke Units as this 611 Sure Bellows the Smoke. it's A Super Wow. I would like to visit this Layout one day. Happy Railroading.
Nice video. Thanks for putting that up.
I just got my set Wednesday, and ran it yesterday during my Snow Day.
I am thrilled with it, everything was just perfect right out of the box. A handsome train set. Well worth the wait. Smooth runner, great sounds, lighting, smokes very well, great details on the loco and cars, nice paint job.
A very classy Lionel passenger set, glad I ordered it.
I hope Lionel makes add on passenger cars, especially the Stationsounds Diner.
Can't wait for a ride behind the real 611!!!
