2.0 out of 5 stars Railroad Empire has fallen
Train continuously derailed at switching unit or stopped for no reason as it passed over the cross guard. In my opinion, the bridge trusses cause the track to enter the switching unit too steep and causes the train to derail. The engine alone does fine, but derails when cars are added. Neither is the track connection design as solid and durable as it appears. Can't...

5.0 out of 5 stars Cool train set!, December 26, 2000

This review is from: Railroad Empire Ho Set-disc (Toy)
This set is wonderful! The powerful ATSF locomotive pulls five freight cars and a caboose along the big double-loop layout that stretches to almost 6 feet by 4 feet! Also, it comes with all kinds of cool stuff, such as a log dump station, a railroad crossing with gates, a bridge-and-pier set, some trakside shanties, trees, cars, a truck, figures, signs, telephone poles, and a power pack. I think it's a super-cool new train set!

This review is from: Railroad Empire Ho Set-disc (Toy)
Train continuously derailed at switching unit or stopped for no reason as it passed over the cross guard. In my opinion, the bridge trusses cause the track to enter the switching unit too steep and causes the train to derail. The engine alone does fine, but derails when cars are added. Neither is the track connection design as solid and durable as it appears. Can't enjoy something like this with your son if you're constantly having to re-rail the train. Quality of design and components not what I expected.
