  • Fun little train. Great Christmas gift for kids.
Style: Remote Control
My four year old loves it and I imagine will for the next 6 or 7 years. Excellent toy train for the price (under $100) - I don't think some people realize how much more a 'nicer' metal train would cost. Track is easy to put together. The remote control is easy to use, my son learned how to use it in about 30 seconds. He loves the sound effects - remote buttons for bell, whistle, and a several voice clips from the first movie. Both the train and track are plastic but seem sturdy to play with. Train looks good with nice detail for a toy. The color is burgundy, not brown like some people have complained about. This train is great to put under a tree and not be worried about it with my son. I purchased the more detailed metal electric O gauge train (3 to 4 times more expensive) several years ago and I would not trust it under the tree. I setup the train on hard wood floor and the track is stable. Don't know yet how it will run if the track is on carpet. ... show more

  • Absolute perfection
Style: Remote Control
The media could not be loaded. I spent months trying to decide on which Lionel train set I wanted to buy, for our Christmas tree. I couldn’t decide between the Polar Express train and the Harry Potter one. I ultimately chose the Hogwarts Express. When it arrived I was more excited than my kids. The train is quite large and plastic, which I wanted. It is still a good weight for being plastic. The plastic is very durable and I would highly recommend the plastic trains if you have kids that like to throw toys. The tracks are easy to put together. I did purchased extra tracks just so we could have more track options. I would most definitely buy a Lionel train set again! My husband wants to get the higher end trains from Lionel too. It’s worth noting that these trains can definitely take a beating. My 2 year old is by no means “gentle”. This poor train has been dropped and kicked a number of times. And it has held up great against our kids! ... show more

  • Must-have for any HP fan
Style: Remote Control
The media could not be loaded. Item as described, very fun & cute, audio is louder than expected, runs forwards & backwards, kind of bulky but then again that's the type of train - good for kids or beginners. Large enough track to go around decent sized Christmas tree.

  • Looks Expensive and realistic
Style: Remote Control
We have a Frozen Lionel train and it looks like a toy. This looks very expensive and looks like a model train, not like a toy. The soup d effects are great. It has a very realistic whistle, and the clips from the movie are perfect. It was very easy to setup and take part. Kids loved running the train all Christmas. The cool feature is there are 2 sets of sound effects. When the train is idle, and when the train is in motion, which I think is a really neat aspect. It was a great edition to our Christmas display, very happy with the purchase. ... show more

  • Hogwarts Express Train
Style: Remote Control
We got this as a Christmas gift for my son and he is absolutely obsessed with it ( he is obsessed with trains in general). I love that it has a remote control and makes noises, and can also move backwards on the tracks. Of all the train sets we own, this is probably the best one, quality wise. It is very well made. We placed it under the Christmas tree over the holidays and it was pretty cool. I would highly recommend it. ... show more

  • Very good for the price...
Style: Remote Control
Fun train. Easy for dad to assemble. Haven’t had a lot of derailment except at the hands of my four year old. The complaints about the lack of volume control are valid. Biggest disappointment is that the couplers are not the same as the rest of the ready-to-play line up, with the exception of the Thomas set. I was hoping to have some rolling stock compatibility between the sets as we also have the polar express. There is no individual rolling stock available except for used overpriced stuff on eBay. The hook couplers on the hogwarts are superior to the fixed knuckle on the other sets. They come unhooked far less and are easier to hook while on the track. Overall very pleased with the exception of the compatibility issue. As a bonus the track being simple plastic should allow for a seasonal garden/deck setup with only the engine coming inside (or parked in the depot station I plan on making). My nephew will be getting the Thomas set next year for Christmas so I have something to play with when I go to my sisters house. ... show more

  • 2nd one worked
Style: Remote Control
First one I ordered had no sound. I returned it (after getting no response from manufacturer) and Amazon sent replacement. This one works fine so far. I’m putting it under my Hogwarts tree. ❤️

  • Great train set! App could be better.
Style: Bluetooth
I purchased the Bluetooth version and I can control this train with my phone using the Cab 3 app. The instructions listed a different app, which apparently is not available here in America but I saw that this was the same company and luckily it works for me. Unfortunately, I have to reconnect to the train every time I turn it on. I wish that there was someway to save it to the app, but once I do connect, it’s pretty cool. I can control the sounds and make the train go slow or fast, also forward or reverse. Overall, I’m very pleased with this purchase and so is my Ravenclaw daughter! ... show more
