This is a fine starter set. I am experienced in trains and was really into the hobby as a child 35 years ago so I knew what to expect at this price point(super inexpensive for trains). I will update this review at weeks end, but it did come with everything as shown. I think one poster did not realize the tunnel was made of paper and has to be made by the buyer or maybe they just got a bad kit.

We got this train set from Amazon for our 10- and 13-year-old sons for Christmas, so we've had it one week. Chose this brand because they already had a second-hand train that was Life-Like and wanted to be able to add the new set to the old one. Everything works great together and they're having a great time with it. Just today started assembling the various shantys, signs, and signals. We paid just over half the "list price" so feel like we got a really good deal on a good-sized set. Contrary to another review, what came in the box was exactly as described and pictured.

I really love this product. My grandson and I are having a ball with this train set. I had no problems setting this train set.

The description for this product and what is shipped does not even come close. I would hope that Amazon is not aware of this and is not intentionly giving false descriptions of there products.
