It includes a 4-foot brass track, a wireless remote with an 80-foot range, and realistic lights, sound, and smoke effects.

While praised for its immersive features, some users report remote connectivity issues.

## Description

PIKO 38112 Denver and Rio Grande Passenger R/C Starter Set w/Lights, Sound and SmokeThis Starter Set features an R/C track power controller and a wireless pocket remote with a range of up to 80 feet. This allows for easy wireless walk-around control of train speed and direction, as well as accessory power and emergency stop. This R/C controller can also operate other locos, with no loco modifications.

Review: Be very wary and please read the entirety of the review - After setting up this starter set, using additionally purchased track, the locomotive ran for a total 0f 15 minutes and stopped. I contacted Piko technical support and after some clarification on the electronical workings of this set, I was advised to purchase a new batter for the hand-held remote. After the trouble and expense of having to drive to town just to purchase a battery and installing said battery, the locomotive will not operate. After completing a thorough diagnosis, checking all electrical connections, checking for voltage and continuity the locomotive still does not operate. I removed all the sets electronics, applied power to the tracks using a 12v lawn mower battery and the locomotive operates. The problem has been isolated to the R/C unit (not the locomotive, I was confused on that at first). I have reached out to Piko technical support a second time and as of the writing of this review. I have not heard back. I can honestly say that at this point it cost just shy of $1200 for the set and extra track. I have a total run time of 15 minutes which equates to $80 per minute. I could not in good conscience recommend this starter set to anyone.
Review: Great Train Set, But Remote Has Connectivity Issues - We needed a new train for around the Christmas tree, and this one is a hit! My son loves it, especially the sound effects, which add a fun touch. However, the remote has some connectivity issues and doesn’t always respond reliably to inputs. We may end up buying an old-fashioned controller to hook to the tracks for more consistent use. Overall, it’s a great set, but the remote could use some improvement.
