The detail on this is very good; it even has seats, stove, and a water closetinside. I wish it had battery powered lights, because then they would be on all the time when switched on, not just when the train is moving. Speed sensitive, so as the train pulls into the station and stops, the lights go dim, then out. The other negative regarding the lighting system is the contacts for power rub each of the eight wheels like brake pads. Friction and noise is the result. I'll look into converting to 9v battery power like the Bachmann Christmas set has. But again, the detail is great inside and out--the decorative paint patterns around the outside is superb.
