Lionel Amtrak Acela 6-31714 : $1400.00
This is a beautiful train to watch in daylight or dark. It starts up and runs very smoothly. If there was any issue with the Acela, I think I\'d be fairly accurate to say that anyone who has run an Acela for more than a few hours has discovered a flaw in the swivel screw that holds the coupler on. The fix I used was to replace the original screw with a longer screw and use loctite. You need to have the steady hands of a brain surgeon to do it but once that issue was resolved it ran flawlessly. I am selling this with confidence that it will perform well. It\'s set in forward motion as I didn\'t want anyone trying to run it any other way. I have noted the scratched noses which happened when the engine missed a switch and hit some sytrofoam landscaping. The noses are interchangeable. Replacements cost $6.00 at Lionel parts when available. I\'m selling it because I am getting ready to build a layout with smaller radius than the Acela can run on. It\'s for the grand kids and they won\'t be playing with this beauty, that\'s for sure.
