I got my new Lionel UP1943 the day after Christmas, but I just now got around to opening it up. It is so beautiful and the graphics are terrific. The horn is so loud but I like it! I ordered the caboose to go with it but it has not come in yet.
I can see why it's so loud, one of the chimes of the horn is bent down.
Shame that it came that way, but at least it's not the shell that is cracked.
