    Beautiful locomotive, Kato really did nice work on this unit. I upgraded to DCC already but found the stock DC boards are in there very tight. Had to take a pair of pliers to the back end of the board to get it out. New DCC board went in with no issues so I think it might be a slightly thicker board rather than the frame. Great locomotive, love the MRL blue

    Very happy with this purchase.

    Kato quality in every way. Smooth and quiet running with very nice details and paint.
