A very nice trolley especially with it having the LED lights around the top. It would look good running on any Christmas train layout serving the town area.

I love it. Also, it's one off my few new in box purchases

I bought a similar one from Legacy Station. I wish they (along with Lionel & Atlas) would come up with a 'delay circuit' that would pause the reversing once it hits the bumper. This would simulate a station/terminal stop to allow passengers to detrain and board for the return trip. It could be about 10-15 seconds, with a selector switch on the chassis bottom. I wrote to MTH, but haven't received any reply yet.

Great idea Michael! It would be a neat product for a smaller company. One that could design a circuit board that could be retrofitted into an existing trolley.

I got this one from Mr. Muffin's Trains. It was $10 less than this year's models, but as far as I'm concerned is the best looking. Thanks Jeremy!

Great review! Love the gloss finish on this - too much of the dull, flat finishes on trains nowadays. Yes, I think I will buy one!

Thanks! It was definitely a MUST ORDER NOW when I first saw it. I think is the first one with Christmas lights any manufacturer has done.

I'm very new to this, but is there a way to have the interior lights brighter but have the speed not so fast? I'm using on a bump n go track and I want the interior lights on, but the trolley goes to fast to the point it will break the bumper. Thanks!

Well, nothing easy. You could change the interior light for a different voltage one or install a constant voltage led. Both require soldering skills and parts from an electronics supplier. There might be constant voltage light kits that RR suppliers sell. Or you could install a diode inline with the motor which is something I want to try. Not sure how much that would slow the motor down. For me, the trolley goes too fast even at the lowest voltage.

Hi, do you have the same trolley? Usually they require some force on the bumper to get it to change direction.
@johnchambers8528

The MTH trolleys are usually good at reversing even at low speed. I do have one older Lionel model that uses a mechanical switching device and it does have to hit the bumper relatively hard to properly activate the reversing action. If The MTH trolley that uses the switch shown in the video does not reverse the trolley, I would check to see if the springs under the bumper is ok. Most likely it may be able to be reset by yourself. If not I would take it to a good servicing dealer and have them check it out.

Yes, as long as they are 3 rail (which I believe they are) they will work great.
