Thanks for watching 👍🏻
The lights at the bottom of the train are a beautiful touch- made me go on EBay to find one 😭
It is a great train set for fans of the movie 🎥 😊 Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Beautiful train 🚂
It is a great train set 😊 Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Anyone remember the Lionel coin bank commercial?
Being in the UK I'd never seen the Lionel Coin Bank commercial before 😬 Found it on UA-cam here: ua-cam.com/video/q1aMrTPyrBU/v-deo.html It does seem a bit intense 😁 Thanks for watching 👍🏻
I'm dreaming I have that toy train:) 😀😍
It is a great Christmas train set 😊 Hope you can get one some day 🤞🏻 Thanks for watching 👍🏻
@@LocoLeighton no problem:)
Did you know this model is Bluetooth compatible so you can control it off your phone
Yeah I do mention the app at about 03:40 in the video 😊 Thanks for watching the video and for your feedback 👍🏻
I noticed you said step down transformer instead of step down converter.
Would it be better to buy a transformer instead of those plug in converters? I hear the converters can have a very loud electrical buzz. Reason i ask is im looking at buying a lionel train set.
Hello 👋🏻 Yeah I think thats what the website I bought it from stated. I currently use my DCC controller to power the track. It might be worth reaching out to Lionel to see if they recommend a UK power supply to run the set 🤔 Thank you for watching the video 👍🏻
@@LocoLeighton thanks for your reply. Lionel replied to me and said I'd need a step down converter. I've heard some horror stories about these converters so I'm treading carefully.
@kevinhughes3779 It’s great that they got back to you with the information. Same they don’t sell a UK power supply for it. Some far it seems fine powered by my DCC controller. I just use it to power the tracks then control using its controller or the app.
Thx for saying where you got it from Iv been looking for one for a while but only found it in the usa but you helped me find tootally thomas so I can buy within the uk great video tho but I have one question can I trust the website?
Glad I could help 😃 I’ve made about 6 separate purchases from the website without a problem 😊 I think Sam’s Trains has also used the website without issue. But if you’re still unsure maybe purchase using a credit card for better protection. I used PayPal to buy my stuff 😊 You won’t be able to use the power supply in the box without a step down transformer. If you have any other questions just let me know. Thanks for watching the video 👍🏻
Thank you🚂
Enjoyed the review mate!. Looks great in the dark. Can you please tell me in Inches the length and width of the track? Thank you
Cheers from Canada
Hello there in Canada 🇨🇦 👋🏻 Glad you enjoyed the video 😃 The oval of track is 150cm (59") x 104cm (41") 😊 Hope that helps and thanks for watching 👍🏻
Thank you very much mate! Really appreciate it!!!
The bell is not broken it’s the bell from the polar express the boy wanted it as his first gift of cristmas the bell was from Santa’s sleigh
Maybe I need to believe more to hear it? 😁 Thank you for watching 👍🏻
@@LocoLeighton your welcome
Can you adjust the chuff rate. As its way to fast and not in time with the pistons.
Yeah it is a bit out of sync. I'll have to see if it can be adjusted when connected to a DCC controller 🤔 Thanks for watching and the feedback 👍🏻
I have the polar express vhs.
That is rare.
Nice one, hang on to it as it sounds like it could be worth something 😊 Thanks for watching the video 👍🏻
Oh yeah?. Now where is it?
🤣
I one meto
Thanks for watching
I’ve had this set for a month and I’ve had nothing but issues with it especially when it comes to the track and the constant derailing of the locomotive. Ho scale Lionel sucks!
I guess this scale is pretty fragile. The couplers are plastic and broke easily. The tiny wires on the tiny connector between the engine and coal tender break loose and so far haven't been able to reconnect wire to the plug. Also had the larger battery operated polar express, and it was great but then the track on that model is plastic and warps easily and then you have problems with track derailment and ill fitting pieces. That's the way it is with plastic so many plastic failures
Hello 👋🏻 I'm sorry to hear that you are having issues with your set 😔 Can you still return it for a replacement or refund. Fortunately I haven't had any issues will mine so far. Used it around the Christmas tree with other locomotives on the track as well. You may have better luck with a replacement if you haven't been put off by all the issues you've been having. Thanks for watching the video 👍🏻
Thanks for the feedback on the battery operated set 👍🏻 My son wanted one but it might not be a good option for him. Thanks for watching the video 👍🏻
@@LocoLeighton I started using Bachmann track yesturday and I haven’t had any issues with the locomotive since. 😊
@@anthonysutube I'm glad its working for you on the Bachmann track. Shame about the Lionel track not working well.
Just wondering if you can get all the characters for this version of the Polar Express, or are they only available with the larger versions? I may be getting these mixed up, as I'm sure there is a Lemax version too! I think they may be limited to the US only though?!
The Maganelock idea for the track is great, saves all the fiddling about with connectors, especially if the joins are plastic.
I had a mini Christmas train set for the tree one year and the plastic joiners kept breaking, but it was only cheap, looked the part though.
“All Aboard!” 🚂🚃🚃🚃
Hello 👋🏻 Lionel do the characters for their O scale Polar Express but I haven't seen them for HO scale yet 😥 The Maganelock works well and is more stable on a hard floor rather than a rug or carpet 😊 I do love to see a train around a Christmas tree 🎄 Thanks for watching the video 👍🏻
