There are miles of thrills in operating this fast freight. The powerful die-cast locomotive, tender, three lightweight plastic cars and true-to·life two-rail track are all built to 3/16" scale so that everything is real scale model. The precision motor is a descendant of the control valve motors developed for the famous Grumman Hellcats. Power is transmitted to the huge drive wheels through superpower worm drive that assures smooth starting and stopping and accurate control of train at all speeds. Locomotive has Lucite electric headlight and removable boiler front. Log car has six wooden logs. Box car has sliding doors. Caboose is illuminated. Realistic close couplers automatically couple on curves or straightaway. Uncoupling is done by remote control. Just push a button and the uncoupling device — which is built in a special track section — does the rest. 14 sections of track make 140" oval. 75 Watt Transformer recommended.
