Impressed

I'm new to ho railroads. A senior reliving his childhood after reading and watching some videos l chose the dcc comand. The locomotives are very nice design and detail are good. They run smooth i enjoy watching them. The rolling stock is also nice detail is good i like the track also. As a unit it performs well stays on track responds to the controller well. I'm very happy with this set plan on expanding it. My next purchase will be a locomotive with sound.

Very Pleased

I have had this starter DCC set for about 2 mos and have given the locomotives frequent use. I bought the Bachman Track Pack and this track plan fills my 4x8 layout. I replaced the track packs 4 turn outs that are wired with DCC powered turn outs. I have used 6 of the 10 EZ Commander DCC addresses with the 2 locos and 4 switches. Great fun. I am usually hard to please yet thus far I am pleased and this set introduced me to DCC HO gauge model railroading. All thee accolades noted would I repeat the purchase? I would not and this is not from dissatisfaction with the set. It is from expanded knowledge of the hobby and realization that I would not want to expand the 4x8 layout with the Bachman all in one EZ Track. It is not as realistic as sectional track with separate roadbed. You can put your own DCC layout together even if you are s beginner. Read and study. For about the same cost you could go with a bit higher end set up buying the components separately. Many options but this could be one: Atlas HO sectional track with more than enough to fill a 4x8. Amazon has Atlas starter track packs. Maybe the Digitrax DCC starter components. A couple of the lower priced Bachman DCC on board locks like the ones that come with the Digital Commander will complete your start in model railroading. If you want to be thrifty and know you wont eventually yearn for a room filling railroad empire go w-the Bachman Commander and have fun! I plan to continue building my 4x8 layout and may even mate the EZ Track to higher end sectionssl track with my next adjacent table. That's a little funky but I think it can be done with some thought and study. Hope my sharing here may be useful to some of you. Forgive the typos!

Great for hobbyist

Yes it did, the only thing I recommend is ordering the track extender with the electric switches

Conversion from dc to DCC was a simple.

The media could not be loaded. This starter set provides an inexpensive entry into DCC model trains. DCC allows the ability to control multiple trains on a single track. This set comes with two DCC locomotives, so you can instantly run two trains. The locomotives and adequately weighted and nicely detailed. The cars have good couplers and all metal wheels. The track is nickel-silver, Bachmann's best. Set up was a breeze. Conversion from dc to DCC was a simple. Just switch the old transformer connections with the new ones. Instructions were very clear. The GP40 locomotive does have a buzzing noise at low speed, but I expected that problem. It was identified in a Youtube video review of this set. Value for price, I can live with the buzz. For a beginning modeler, this is an excellent place to start. The advanced modeler would likely be disappointed, as the locomotives do not have sound decoders. Control is limited to speed, direction, and lights. However, the controller will control sound on a locomotive that has a sound decoder, so there is room for future expansion.

A very pleasant surprise - Now includes Digital Commander PLUS

I wanted the DCC controller and compared buying it alone vs with a set with one included. I opted for the set which surprisingly came with the updated DCC plus controller which is not advertised on Amazon. It still shows the older model which is no longer accurate.

Bachmann Service is Terrible

We purchased this set as a gift for our 9 year old son. One of the trains was just broken out of the box. I considered returning the whole thing to Amazon, but since one train did work - we decided to keep it and just return the one broken train to Bachmann. What a Mistake!Bachmann says it will take 6 weeks to replace the train. 6 weeks to replace something that was broken right out of the box. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE! Bachmann should immediately replace the defective train. I should have sent the whole thing back to Amazon for a full refund.No Bachmann trains this Xmas - their Customer Service is terrible.
