Engine runs perfectly. The Mars light on the engine is great. I like the white drive wheels and all the action on the wheel rods when the engine is running. It is a strong pulling engine. Kato products are great - track, switches, engines, etc.

All Kato steam locomotives are strong performers, except possibly the early vintage ones that had iffy electrical connections. Nice unit.

All Kato locomotives are well made but when it comes to steam the GS4 is the best. Kato make some other steam locos but none perform as well as the GS4 because of the design of the front floating truck that works wonders at keeping it on the track. I also have the FEF 484 #844 and it is not as stable as the GS4 is. To me this is the pinnacle of n scale steam

This is of the same quality the previous gs-4’s were made of. Very quiet and extremely smooth running and dcc installation is a cinch! Highly recommend one of you get the chance and love steam!

Good quality. Well detailed. Superb slow running performance. Occasionally derails on Kato points. As this happens with other steam outline locos, I believe it is a problem with the points themselves, which need to be eased.
