Lionel The Polar Express Model Train Set with Track | Berkshire-Style Ready to Run with Lights, Sound Effects and Remote Multicolor,711803

Over all the polar express train is good and sizeable but for the cost it would have had top marks if it came with some figures and the carriages don't illuminate, you can barely see any children figures in the carriage windows as mentioned in the description. It also says lights up may I mention that is one LED at the front that's it, I will look into adding some lights inside the carriages before my three year old grandson sees it, This Like most other buyers is intended to go around our Xmas tree hope this review helps.

Expensive, but I think it's the only legit Polar Express train set available, and the kids love Polar Express; what can you do?The track you get with the train makes a small oval shape, and is pretty easy to fit together. Slightly easier than Lego, but harder than Trackmaster stuff.The bell that comes with the train is really bad, we've had cat toys which resembled a bell better than this one, which is a real shame. It just kind of rattles around.The train itself is pretty well made, stays on the track, and can go forwards and backwards; as well as playing sound clips from the film, a nice chug chug sound, and steaming sound when it's stationary.Overall, giving it four stars. It's really expensive and the bell is awful, but the kids really love it

The media could not be loaded.  Love the train, came in a secure packaging. Even the shipping fee is expensive in Thailand, it is worth buying it. Easy to assemble and works fine, the train do not derail even in its fastest mode. All in all, great product.

Train is great, but I got a bill for £42 in import taxes and charges a month later from FedEx which was not made clear at point of order. The seller and Amazon have agreed to refund all extra costs, and acted very quickly on being contacted.

Really happy with the polar express Lionel train. I have bought it for my children and to go around my Christmas tree. The kids loved it and it was just what I was looking for to match my Christmas decoration - a train that isn’t too over top and has a classic look.It’s wonderful... and has very quick delivery.It is rather expensive for what it is... but it’s the look I wanted to go for so I stumped up. I’m sure we will enjoy this train at Christmas for many many years to come.

The media could not be loaded.  Great fun. Really completed our garden Christmas decorations

For what you pay this is great value.

It's bigger than it looked in pics but it's great, will just have to move a few things around for it to go around my Christmas tree, which was why I brought it, also doesn't say"all aboard the polar express" like it was advertised, but it does say something about the north pole, it's definitely worth the money... we did feel like big kids again trying it out!
