John, that's great to see! I have the Mickey set as well, and have stayed away from this because of the jerkiness of that loco! Thanks for the update!

Pdxtrains, glad to see another fellow Oregonian around these parts! Reporting to you live from Bend

Got any good model railroad shops on your end of the Cascades you can recommend? The 1 shop here in town is very, bleh....

Now I'm really curious to try the updated Mickey's Christmas train with Bluetooth to see if the recent updates, such as what they did to the Five Star, also helped the Mickey 4-4-0. Luckily, you can find the updated Loco and tender for sale on eBay. I enjoyed the Mickey 4-4-0 for Christmas very much, aside from its jerkyness and loud humming at low speeds. So I decided to gut it and try to make it look closer to the #1 engine at Disneyland: The C.K. Holliday
