This train is so great. It goes fast if you want it to. It stays on the track very well. I recently changed my track from a race-like track to a cruvy, twisty track. I can still go fast, and the cars do not fall over. They can handle speed well. The station included is nice, but the big yellow one is better. It is good to buy extra track because an oval can get boring very quickly, but this is only a starter set. The remote is great as well. I am glad Lego came out with a train that is much more affordable than the 9v sets. With the 9v, the only pro that I can see is not having to change any batteries. But, the speed regulator must stay in one location, unless you want to move it to another piece of track. But then you have to worry about the wires. Thew 9v is good for someone who has a huge train layout, but still the RC can be just as good, or better. With the RC trains, there is a wireless remote, and the train tracks are less expensive because they do not conduct electricity. Rechargeable batteries are a good money-saving option. I have Energizer batteries. The train is quiet, but not too quiet. With the RC trains, you can expand your railroad much less expensively.
