DDA40X Locomotive Building Set with Base, Collectible Steam Train Building Toy Model for Adult Train Lovers, Ideal Gift for Home Décor (1603 PCS, NF10296)

An awesome addition to my collection of builds from Nifeliz !! I have done many of their kits and will continue to buy from them. I also have many builds from Lego as well and find that Nifeliz is real close to the same quality. Overall, I only had minor difficulties with some of the smaller parts that held the railings and a couple small pieces on the front and rear bumpers staying in place. I rectified the issues with a little hot glue and called it a day. The finished piece is amazing with great attention to details. The instructions had a some glitches with details and legibility, but I just broke out the magnifying glass and all was good. Great build at a great price !!

I put this train set together with my 7-year-old, and it was a fun! It took us about 2–3 days, working in a few-hour stretches. The instructions were decent, but there were a few areas where they could be clearer—some steps required a bit of guesswork (but no more than other big box brands I suppose). That said, the final result was absolutely worth it! The build was engaging, the pieces fit well, and my son loved seeing the train come to life. Overall, I highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys detailed building projects! Totally worth the money- I will buy another set again.

I enjoyed building this locomotive. Had a couple of missing parts that I worked around but I'm still waiting for those parts 2+ weeks later. I waited almost a month for missing Big Boy parts. My reason for not giving this 5 stars is the instruction manual is it is hard to see the assembly diagrams because they are printed too dark and there are a couple of unmarked packages of parts that should be labeled and shown in the manual when they are to be used. This is a great kit for the money.

Hours of fun. Looks great once put together.

It arrived sooner than expected, and it's a beautiful addition to my set of Nifeliz trains. I had no problems with the build and no deformed or missing pieces. This train is quite long but very sturdy, and it barely fits on my shelf. lol The earlier train sets from 2022-2023 didn't include a display base like this, so to maintain consistency with my display I chose to not build the display base. One thing I was disappointed with is the new format of the instruction book. The pictures are smaller to fit more assembly steps on each page resulting in a smaller book; however, the smaller pictures make it harder to identify colors and distinguish some small parts from each other.

Fun build, went together easy and the directions were great! Will be purchasing more in the future!

Cheaper than Lego but the instructions are not as good. My grandson can handle it .

It's an awesome set. The size is perfect! I scored this a 3 because the instructions were very annoying. Lego shows different angles while assembling. This set did not. I had to use a magnifying glass in order to see some of the proper connecting points. I'm a huge fan of the DDA40X locomotive so everything else is awesome. The price wasn't too bad either.

Snaps together well. Directions are good but could use some hints and tips

Espectacular locomotora DD40ax. Gran calidad de armado. Llegó en caja. Muy bonitos detalles. Solo se batalla en el eje de los trucos, no alcanza a dar vuelta. Está genial su base para exhibición.

Super

Thos went together pretty easy and looks great. Nice addition to my display cabinet

Fun and challenging to build, but great to display. That's why I bought another train from this company
