Bachmann has a great corner on the affordable model train market; they know which trains are the classics and do a great job of making models that the average modeler can afford. However, with affordability comes compromise; there is no working headlight on this model, which if on here, probably would have added to the cost. Still, it has a good amount of power and will look great on your N Scale layout. If you're a Disneyland fan, with a little repaint, this one could stand in nicely for the CK Holliday train at the park. Just remember that N Scale is very small; best for adults, not little children.
