The Splendid Red Engine He Always Was
During my middle school years I was moving away from the classic Thomas toy range, TrackMaster and began collecting the Bachmann range at that point. I originally had the first version of James produced from 2002 to 2015, and while he was a great runner, there was a ton of inaccurate features that gave him a very poor design that didn't resemble the way he looked in the original TV series of Thomas and Friends. So thankful that Bachmann decided to give him a much needed updated cosmetic change starting in 2017, as this new model of James looks absolutely amazing. Minute I took him out the packaging he was very smooth, had no problems, motor is very quiet, hardly makes any noise.

Good detail

Overall evry good, should have been weighted more.
All the other reviews are accurate - works quite well, but he should have been weighted down more, as he can't pull alot.

My Son Loves The engine
We have been collecting the Bachmann Trains Thomas And Friends collection over the years . James is a little lighter that the larger of the collection . He has a little trouble pulling the lager loads , but my son will load him down and after his wheels slip a little , he gets rolling.We had another Bachmann engine break down , but Bachmann Factory Service was great to deal with and resolved our issues. Jams will be one year old in our collection in 11 days ! Still pulling fine !

EXCELLENT!!!!!
This train brought back so many childhood memories I had. For $75, this was the best thing I’ve ever bought! I highly recommend it for anyone, especially for the young ones! Also, it shipped really fast!!!

Dodgy
For such an expensive train and meant to be genuine, it doesn’t seem to be. Like other comments mention, comes apart when it shouldn’t. The front wheels are flimsy, aren’t tight enough so flop around thus train keeps coming off the track. This was a present for my brother with autism and he’s very upset and thinks it’s his fault. I can’t figure out how to contact the buyer or anyone about this.
