LionelThe Polar Express Electric O Gauge Bluetooth 5.0 Model Train Set with Remote

Very cool set based on the movie the Polar Express. Tom Hanks' announcements, train whistle and smoke generator work very well. Don't plan on using the app though and connecting via bluetooth. Seems the app has not been updated in a very long time, so long that it does not work with Android 14. The set comes with a very capable remote control though. Overall, a very nostalgic toy to help decorate the house for the holidays.

Great Job Lionel on a Wonderful O Gauge Polar Express Train. I cannot think how you all could have made it better at the price you sell it at. Sounds like a real Train (Choo Choo sound), the bell, the whistle, the movie sounds, the smoke, the headlight, the cars that light up, etc., are all Terrific.For those who are wondering if the O scale is worth the extra money, YES! Our sons have the plastic (larger scale) which is perfect for them as they have small children that love to attack it. But the O Gauge is mostly metal like the other Lionel Trains and the Engine is heavy.And thank you Amazon for making the price a little more affordable.It's Perfect and we cannot be happier! Thank you!

My husband and I purchased this train for our son’s birthday. He had been wanting it for a while. He had been rather respectful and patient about it because it is not cheap. When he finally opened it up on his birthday, he was ecstatic.Checking out the train, it looks and works great. The listing says that you can use bluetooth to control it with your smartphone but that doesn’t seem like an option available for our version? I have seen older videos of people reviewing this train and having issues with the back railing falling off the last train car. They have apparently fixed that issue as ours was pretty sturdy. The engine is obviously heavy and everything was pretty straight forward for setup so it didn’t take him long to set it up and start playing with it. We were a little sad because the version we got didn’t have the hitchhiking hobo that comes out of the top of one of the train cars.The train comes with a few figures which are great. Our youngest loved playing with them and discovered that there are small holes in the doorways for them to stand in and so on. Unfortunately, the figures usually get stuck in the doorways if they shift while the train is running.The train did come on time and quickly after ai ordered it and was in great condition. The outer box had a few dings and holes, but the inside box and the box for the train itself were not damaged at all. Aside from the lack of bluetooth and the hitchhiking hobo, this was an excellent purchase.

I was really looking forward to receiving and having this train set for the holidays but when I opened the box, I found a locomotive that was missing the bell in front, had a broken piece of metal on the wheels and after assembling the track and trying the locomotive, the light turned on but nothing else was working? Also, it looked used. My father has always had the smaller Lionel train sets and they have been wonderful. I read other reviews with this same problem so I guess things happen. I’ll try one of there smaller sets and hope for a better result.Update: I received my refund rather quickly and I did purchase another Lionel train set and it was perfect. Also, my friend has this train set and it was perfect and runs great so my situation was not the norm. I will continue to buy train sets from this manufacturer.

This is such a fun train! We enjoyed putting the track around our tree. Make sure to read the dimensions of track as we did order extra for our train. We loved the attention to detail on the characters as well as the movie sounds that can be produced by the remote. Our kids enjoyed the bluetooth feature with the train as well. Would definitely recommend or purchase again! There are videos on youtube you can see exactly what this train does!

It was well worth the money. Built well and of great quality. Used it around our tree.

Works perfectly. Awesome train that will look great under the tree
