Kato KAT20-853 N M2 Basic Oval & Siding Model Track Set

Easy to use. Setup and teardown are easy and almost foolproof. Trains run smoothly and relatively quietly. The overall look is IMHO more realistic than other all-in-one track systems. I wasn't sure how much I would like this, but after seeing how quickly and easily it went together, I'm sold! I just ordered more to start expanding my layout! Quality stuff from Kato!

Great product!

Best starter pack just fantastic

Fundamentally the product was excellent except the switches didn't work. I experienced sporadic issues and functionality with remote controls. Kato support wasted no time suggesting a return instead of troubleshooting. I'm not an engineer but question the design of the actuating fulcrum. I also noticed the design had changed from a full plastic base plate to a molded aluminum base plate. Internal design was not illustrated. Web reviews suggest the switches are good with exceptions. I will order switches individually to be sure I receive functional product. If they work well it would be a great product.

Kato n scale M2 pack fits the bill for starting model railroading, or picking it back up after years of absence, track layout is excellent easy to assemble. Instructions are easy to follow no guest work you’re not spend time trying to figure out the pieces you need it just fits. Set up was beyond what I expected after being a model railroad over 35 years ago! You spend less time building and more time running your trains!! I will be adding layouts to the master in the V series.

This was a very smooth transaction. Super fast delivery, nice touch with the note and origami...I actually liked that a lot. Thank you for great service...I'll be buying more from you. Thank you Sir.

I have been modeling in N-scale, HO scale, and G-scale since 1980. due to it's small size N-scale track can be particularly difficult . If you want reliable worry free N-scale track you can't beat KATO N-scale track. With other brands I would have to take my dremel grinding tool to the turn-out points and rail joints to keep the engines and boxcars from derailing. KATO track is made with a higher precision and goes down ready to receive your rolling stock. I'm getting too old to worry over bad track. GO KATO and be worry free.

Great choice for starting an N scale layout. Easy to set up and take down with no issues. The best track for starting a permanent layout with plenty of add on kits for easy expansion. Kato quality is the best!

<良い点> ・電動ポイントの切り替えが楽しいです。 ・進行方向の切り替えがセレクトスイッチなのもうれしいです。 ・電気配線はすべてコネクタで接続するのでわかりやすい方だと思います。 ・フィーダー線路へのコネクタ接続の仕方が最初はわかりませんでした。 <注意点> ・取扱説明書にも書いてありますが、線路同士の接続を外す時は、力を入れる向きに注意が必要です。 (力を入れる向きを間違えると接続パーツが割れ(壊れ)ます)

Excellent quality

Excellent product and highly recommended 👌

学生の頃諦めた趣味を40年振りに本格的に始め、最初は昔使っていたTomixにしようと思っていましたが、熟考の上、車輌で信頼が厚く多く保有しているKatoにしました。 当然ながら品質には隔世の感がありますが、特にポイントの安定性は素晴らしいですね。 一方でフィーダーやポイントのケーブルが短めで標準レイアウトでも延長コードが必要なことがある点は買う前に注記してもらえたら親切かな？と思いました。

The Kato n gauge track system is great - see the title of this review! I use it for Austrian narrow gauge HOe, and the large radius curves/points are so much better than the tighter curves usually associated with narrow gauge track. I have many other pieces of track in addition to this set and would recommend it to any n or HOe modeller.
