Bachmann Trains - 85’ Full Dome - Amtrak® Phase III #10031 - Ocean View (Lighted Interior) - HO Scale

Although this a long train car, it works well on tight radius turns. This is due to a mechanism that is attached to the couplers which pivots the couplers in the direction of the turn. This makes for derailment free operation. The interior lighting is also well done and realistic.

As expected very happy

I like it but it’s not that bright but it looks great I really recommend this

The cars are basically fine but the light in the dome is very dim. And when you look inside there's nothing there.

I bought this car and a Walthers car, and the color and configuration of both match, which I was concerned about. Both cars are Phase 3, and the other car, the Walthers, is the last car in the Amtrak train. Bachmann didn't have one, so I went with the Walthers for that car. I did have a problem with this car going through my Bachmann switches. I swapped out the couplers for longer ones, and it solved the problem. I did the same on the engine, and that alone might of fixed it. Doing it on the car may help the car that is behind it, so I did both ends of the car. Instead of not being able to crawl through the switched, it can go full speed. I gave it 4 stars, because this problem is easy to fix, and might not be a problem with the car itself. This car preforms great. It has two light bulbs in it at each end, and it looks like they are at each end from the outside in the dark. They could have done a better job on that, and they do flicker for all the normal reasons, which I might fix.

Even prettier than pictured, very happy with this addition to my collection
