The media could not be loaded. Got this for me and my little boy it is very cool definitely different than what I expected. I love it. The difference between this than the actual box is I bought two additional train cars separate sound speeds up as fast as you move. The train makes it more realistic. The only thing I do not like is the track does not lock together too well overall awesome toy for me and my little boy.

The track is terrible with poor connectivity. The train constantly derails even on a flat surface. The Locomotive and cars are nice but what good are they if you can run them on the track. Very disappointed in Lionel Trains....I am returned the set....

The media could not be loaded. The only other train I have experience with is Bachman’s Chattanooga (HO) which I set up every xmas. This Polar Express train (HO) is every bit as good as that train. The locomotive is beautiful. Heavy, detailed, and the wheels on all the cars sit well in the track. The remote is easy to use. Syncs to locomotive immediately. Not a single flaw I can find on any of the cars. Plus, it’s the Polar Express, it’s like having the movie play out on your floor. That’s worth 5 stars right there. I had it set up and running within 10 minutes. The only issue I have is that I don’t like the track. It’s very quick and easy to set up, as it connects with magnets on the ends, but there can be issues with the rails not lining up perfectly, causing the train to derail a little bit. EZ track (HO) is much better in my opinion so I’m going to ditch the track that came with this train. It only comes with enough for a small oval anyway, and my layout goes all over the house, which takes a significant amount of good track. Engine sound and other sound effects are fantastic, but loud. I run it with the sound off unless everyone in the house is awake...

The track is junk; consequently the power supply is useless. I recommend using Bachmann’s Snap Track and power supply instead. The heart of the system, the locomotive, takes some getting used to. I had several derailments the 1st day, pulling its 3 cars and running it on a figure 8 track with piers supporting part of the figure 8. Put all on level ground, still many derailments. Bend the extension out the back of the locomotive up to keep the loco attached to the tender. Otherwise you could damage the cords that connect it to the tender. Ran it the 2nd day with only the loco & the tender & on level ground, no derailments; I will try pulling just 2 cars and on level ground to see what happens. The tiny bell at the front of the loco was defective and was not even attached, too bad since the bell is a huge part of the sound effects. The sounds and voice coming out of the speaker in the tender were rather nice. I have not been able to get my phone to connect via Bluetooth for more than a few seconds, but connection with the handheld remote is rather good. All in all, if it weren’t for my grandchildrens’ love of the movie, I’d probably send it back. I suppose it’s OK overall, but steer clear of the track that comes with it, it’s worthless.

Everything is in such great shape and works perfectly. The brass bell on the engine came damaged, though.

The bang for your buck ratio on this Lionel HO Polar express train does not seem right. The magnetic track seems like it would be great on a flat surface. I have this train on a relatively flat rug and I ended up with a lot raised edges where the tracks meet. Which then leads to derailing. So, if you are having issues with derailing, run your finger across the entire track and feel for raised track edges where they meet. I think this is a great track for flat surfaces, otherwise the track is not that great. The locomotive needs something more at this price level. Appearance wise, the locomotive and passenger cars look great for a starter set. The negative? The sound quality is that of a mediocre fm radio. There are a lot scratchy noises, I am left wondering if this is a defect or if this is the way it is meant to be? The front plastic wheels on the front and rear of the locomotive drive me crazy. It is almost as if they are too light and any imperfection on the rail causes either of the two to derail. I think this product has a lot of potential as starter train set. What would lead to a five star review? How about some metal wheels on the rear and front wheels of the locomotive to add some resistance to dislodging? Also, some better sound quality would be great. The track, I can live width.

I bought this train set because I have an older analog train set and noticed it was compatible with my track and controller. This was an excellent choice it works very well on my old HO track as well as the track layout it came with. I was surprised at how easy the Bluetooth app is to use. The wireless remote it comes with also works very well. One thing I noticed is that this train does not have a smoke option. Overall, I am very satisfied with this product and would certainly recommend it to others.

Lionel train track pieces do not fit together properly. Also, the power does not work properly so the train stops working soon after setup. There should be a recall
