BLI Plymouth Switcher

It really is quite small, only about 1 1/2 2 in. Also anyone here think I should continue these reviews? -
That is just a little bit disturbing, but stil a great shot. Is the rest of him somewhere? Still not as creepy as the new Thomas.

packaging: the packaging was normal BLI plastic box with foam inserts and the plastic casing, as usual up it held up well and was packaged tightly Cosmetic: the locomotive has crisp paint with few problems, the Plymouth wording on the front was clear but the bell holder had an ugly white spot and the front vent had an angle (easy fix). Another problem was one of the traction tires (on middle wheels) was already fairly worn, I will use it with that till it is almost broke but this was an annoyance, thankfully they come with them. Running : The engine didn't run to well with factory settings but after changing start voltage it ran at a steady crawl. DC had problems though with it changing direction randomly when going in reverse. Pulling Power: For the small size of this engine it had quite some power, it was able to haul around 15 cars (more than enough for the small switcher) at all speeds Overall: This model if definitely worth the costs of it all and would make a great addition to any layout (this is my opinion for real not just because I got it free) This was my first review, so let me know what you think. Should I keep it the same add more what? I am here to please
