Video: MTH HO scale F3 train set

thanks for the up- date nice option.

Sounds very good. I couldn’t tell if the sound was in the loco or in the power pac but it sounds good.

That is a very good way to get started.

What a great way for the new model railroader to get started.
DCC sound is a huge step forward to keep the young person excited with model railroading.

very Interesting

Would be a great set to add a number of cars to.

They could have done a much better job on the windshield!!

I like the preview. Do they also make PA and FA alcos with accurate sounds? Thanks.

not bad…

Wow, what a fantastic starting point. MTH has got to have a home run here. If only they can make these fast enough. Great price, great chance to enjoy the hobby.

very nice ty

Pretty cool, 'cept for the M&M’s logo. Kinda dopey----

This looks like a good way to get started - might work for me as I’m extremely limited as to available space.

Thanks for the review.

Having been in two Internatonal Conventions with sharing our
home and published in railroad magazines, it is wonderful to
see that my youngest generation can experience a train set
with sound and controls that were not available for me back
in the early 1930’s Enjoy the thrill of the new products as we
did through the years of model railroading. Chris Hansen

looks like a great way to start

nice set ,sound makes it realistic

Hi Paul,
The sound system is in the locomotive.

I’m glad you enjoyed the video.

Hi Mike,
MTH is making an Alco PA-1 and PB-1 with sound that should be out this month.
Thanks for watching.

Thank you, I did not know that the HO engine had the sound install already. I learned how easy to was to start using. Thank you again.
