This is a nice co-incidence. I wanted to have a simple steamer to run around the christmas tree this year. So, I went on fb marketplace and got this president's choice trainset. The seller sold it to me very cheap and claimed he never ran it. Well, that's true because right out of the box it didn't work despite it being in mint condition. Long story short, there was a short in the front lightbulb - a factory defect. I got it all back together and it runs perfectly. Its a really nice engine and a great prize!

Honestly I think CN 6060 would be a very awesome and good Polar Express since it is a northern locomotive and fun fact. Santa Claus and Mrs Clause are actually Canadian, they both have a Canadian citizenship in the North Pole so i honestly think it would be a good locomotive to work as The Polar Express for the north pole while 1225 works too, for the North Pole. Plus who doesn't want two beautiful Polar Express locomotives? 6060 and 1225 are awesome for the job

Wasn't in bad condition. but needed TLC. was missing the 2 of the 4-8-2. and the tender hook. also looked like it might have taken a header off a table at some time. I managed to get it all back together. It looks and runs beautifully. Harrison I have a request to you and your viewers. That little bag of Parts. Where do all the parts go? Is there a video some where? Is there a illustrated parts list on assembly? Something to help filling the holes. The ladders are driving me nuts.🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃.

I bought a brass n scale steam locomotive with a wire that as far as I can tell was soldered from the trailing truck to the motor chassis frame (solder marks directly above and below each other; one on the bottom of the chassis, the other directly below it on top of the trailing truck aperture). The locomotive draws current but the lights don’t work and the loco doesn’t move. Im out of town so can’t make repairs now but given the problems the loco has, does that in your experience sound like something that can be fixed by just soldering the wire back into the training truck on one end then to the chassis on the other?
