Very nice Locomotive
Runs just as nice as you would expect from a Kato, nice detail for its size . Looks very nice hanging out with my Big Boy !

A fine locomotive.
Been running my FEF-3 on a temporary Unitrack layout for a few weeks now. Just a great locomotive. Very smooth and quiet, and can crawl along very slowly with no stuttering or stalling. Detail and quality is up to the typical Kato high standard. A fine addition to my growing N Gauge collection.

Derails very easily
Sold as new. Not sure it is. Packaging not sealed. Derails very easily on even the slightest imperfections. I could not get it to run reliably on my Kato left or right cross overs or the double crossover. Doesn’t like any kind of imperfections. I have the Kato Big Boy too and it runs perfectly on my layout. Maybe I got a bad one. Dunno…

Very nice locomotive
Took me four tries to get this on the track correctly as there are five sets of wheels. It has a smooth motor and can run very slowly which is neat. It's running right now behind me using a Kato M2 track set just laying on a rug. I can only attach two cars without the third or fourth derailing, due to the rug I assume, but this train easily pulls all seven cars in the Kato UP excursion set. Reverse works perfectly. All is good. The front four wheels are held by a weak spring which is disconcerting but I'm not going to worry until a problem develops. SInce this is expensive, I should say Spark Deals shipped very quickly and it arrived in fine shape.

Kato N scale fail.
The FEE wheel rods keep coming apart. Fortunately have been able to find the pins and put back together. This is happening with the N scale Big boy too. Aesthetically they look great but for the price I’d rather have functionality. Yard boss steam locomotive is still going after 3years. Sticking to n scale diesel locomotives from now on.

迫力があるNゲージ(^-^ゞ
最近アメ車にハマっているので購入しました。 本当はビッグボーイを買おうと思っていたけど、直ぐに飽きそうになるので躊躇。 お手頃価格のFEF(*^^*) レンタルレイアウトで走行させました。 なかなか良い感じですね。
