@wclaurence I WOUDNT RUN ANY SET ON CARPET BECAUSE I DONT CARE HOW MUCH YOU CLEAN YOUR RUG THERES ALWAYS SMALL PICES THAT THE EYE MAY NOT SEE YOUR BEST BET IS TO LAY DOWN A SHEET OF PLYWOOD THEN LAY THE TRACKS ON THAT TO BE SAFE THESE NEWER TYPE TRAIN SETS ARE MADE CHEAPER AND WONT TAKE MUCH MISS USES OR LACK OF MANTNESS THESE DEALERS THAT DO REPAIRS ARE NOT CHEAP AT ALL TO HAVE YOUR ENGINE FIX OR EVEN SERVICED FOR THAT MATTER

Another question, if I may? I have read comments on other postings about carpet fibers getting into the motor, and doing harm. Is this a real threat? I have a New York berkshire junior that I run under the tree, but I have a fleese blanket on the carpet to act as snow.

@wclaurence - carpet can effect any motor, the fibers can wrap around the drive shaft. (even a roomba carpet vacume which is designed to run on carpet can jam up if the fibers aren't cleaned out) You can run a train on carpet as long it doesn't have a lot of lose fibers that would get into the engine.

Do my eyes deceive me, or is the number on the loco 5433? Your title says 5344.
