This review is from: Bachmann Trains Prairie 2-6-2 with Smoke and Tender - Union Pacific 1836 (Toy)
Well lets start with the build quality, low on detail but theres enough where it counts! Great loco for the 6-10 yrs old range enough detail to be a big-boy train but enough durability to survive a crash unscathed. My biggest problem is the weight, theres not enough of it, poor on grades more than 5% and low hauling capacity on level track 4 Walther's 50' plugs and a caboose. Surprisingly good low speed performance for such a cheap model. For those buying this as a switcher BE WARNED! the front coupler is non-operational. So its good for branches and Local passengers, and freights.BTW if your looking for good passenger cars cheap to go with this I suggest Model Power heavyweights, cheap and durable, and come in a good ammount of road names.

This engine had some problems. The cab or cover comes off all the time.It is not secured. The front and rear wheels are poorly designed. The rear wheels wore out quickly. The front are hard to align on the track.

This review is from: Bachmann Trains Prairie 2-6-2 with Smoke and Tender - Union Pacific 1836 (Toy)
(I know the title says i'm a "mommy of 3", but this is her 12 year old son reviewing it.) I opened this toy on Christams Day and was so excited! As soon as i was done opening my presents, I rushed outside and turned it on. Cool thing, it comes with smoke oil, but I have to ration it out cause my dad's smoke oil I guess expired 'cause it's not working anymore. I have always wanted a steam locomotive, but my parents say they're "too expensive". I guess they found an inexpensive locomotive they knew I would like and bought it. It works excellent, especially being in almost 100% humdity 70 degree weather in the garage during the winter time! But if you want to keep it really working, use [[3-IN-ONE 10035 Multi-Purpose Oil, 3 Oz.]] by dripping a little bit of it on every wheel of the locomotive. If anyone wants an inexpensive steam locomotive, but doesnt want the inexpensive quality, purchase this. I say this is an EXCELLENT PRODUCT!!!!!
