## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Big boy 4041 I love it
*by  on Reviewed in the United States 9 January 2026*

I have a standard box man snapped together, engage layout that I run under my Christmas tree. Two steam engines and one diesel, silver bullet all Kato trains. They just run so nice. The only problem I have is in reverse with my old homemade light it passenger cars are heavy and will make the big boy flex up. Which will make the front 4 weeks pop off the track. That’s my fault. I have probably 15 locomotives and this is by far my favorite. I can sit and watch it. Run around the track for hours. I’m pretty sure my curves are 11.25 and it runs around it great. The engine articulates like four different places. The detail is pretty dag on nice for $300 . I normally don’t post reviews on here. But I figured this was worthy if there’s someone out there like me that second-guessed. Now if you want to convert it to DCC, you better just buy one like that. It was a nightmare, taking it apart just to change the couplers over to the old style. Way easier to just convert a cold car over or something to have those couplers on it. Hope this review helps and happy new year everyone.

### ⭐ Bigboy 4014 N Guage - Looka great, but very very fragile
*by  on Reviewed in Australia 25 May 2026*

Only ran it twice. Derailed and the connecting rods simply fell apart. Totally dismayed. If this is what Kato call quality, then never again.
