Great Passenger Set Feb 26, 2005 By Bill "billsrrempire"
The McKinley Explorer is a great N scale passenger set. The F9A powered locomotive is a well-constructed and durable locomotive. The second F9A is unpowered. The three full-dome cars are the same as the real ones that are in service on the Explorer and each has a unique name. This is one of my favorite trains. A very colorful and eye-catching set. The warranty is a nice feature. Bachmann has been manufacturing N scale trains since the 1960s.

McKinley Explorer Set May 29, 2008 By John Bell
I have been running this train for 2 years now and I'm very pleased. Dollar for dollar, I think its worth it. This train set is not for kids, but only because of the couplers. The couplers are not very good and break very easy. Fortunately, there are better couplers available for conversion. I had to add weights to the passenger cars to keep them from falling of the track, but the engine just keeps on running. I have 7 other brands of engines and this little engine out runs them all. Most people don't like them because you can't convert them to DCC, at least not very easily. I let my 7-year-old grandson run this train (after I couple them) and he runs them pretty hard. He constantly throws the reversing switch without stopping the engine first, which is a very bad thing, but its still running.

McKinley Explorer Train Set Jan 24, 2009 By Smoguy "smoguy"
Great value, Bachman is a good name for starter sets, the detail was very good, and the price at $45.00 including S&H was unbeatable.

N Gauge Train set Jan 31, 2011 By Peter Polko
The Bachmann McKinly Explorer N gauge Train set was a very good buy. It performs well. Some minor problems with it, I.E: had to be resolved with Bachmann. But they did well, replacing an engine that lost its coupler with a new one in a week, with just a phone call.
