Title: Broke the 2nd day
Product review: My son has wanted this train set for a long time. It combines his two favorite things - military and trains! I bought it for his 9th birthday. I could quickly tell that the quality of the engine was nothing like that of our Bachmann engines - it weighs about 1/4 of the Bachmann. The set went together quickly and my son was enjoying it. He used it on and off for several hours and then the engine tipped over on the track because the track was not level (was on carpet) so we moved the track to a hard floor. Then the engine stopped working, the wheels spin but the engine will barely move. It seems like there are some gear stripping but I won't be able to tell until I can open it up. All in all, very disappointing.
