I am thinking of returning this set.The whistle worked for the first 5 minutes and stopped working and now i think it is broken.I also purchased the other sets, the Harry Potter and Polar Express one,I have not set up the Harry Potter and am going to give that away as a gift but I did unwrapped the Harry Potter and the engine on it is noticeably (twice) as heavy as the Coca-Cola one.The Polar Express engine is also very heavy (twice) compared to the coca cola one.The coca-cola one feels like it's a cheap quality build item compared to the other two engines so I would suggest the Polar Express and the Harry Potter over this one.The Polar looks more fun though because of the 4 additional characters, the whistle works out of the box.As for the smoke I have not gotten it to work well on either of the train.

edit:changing from 1 star to 3 star.Yes it is lighter and feels 'cheaper-made' than the other set, but it is still a decent set.I have set it up on it's own track and I have the polar express running on the outer track in the opposite direction.The kids love it.I paid $139 for this set and for that price, I think I will be keeping it even if the whistle is not functioning properly.I have purchased the Thomas and Friends cheaper sets that runs $50-60 and also the wooden table top train sets that runs $90-$130 and it's a no brainer to go with this set since it is a lot more fun and enjoyable for the kids.If the Polar Express or Hogwart set falls to around the $170-$200 range I would recommend those sets over the Coca Cola @ $139.

If you were to purchase the components separately, it would total well over 300.00. For this price how can you pass it up. It would be nice if the engine was made out of metal completely, but it still is a workhorse and keeps up with my polar express set which I combined the two with and now have plenty of extra track and transformer if I want to expand. The kids like (and I do to) the train sounds, put the train in neutral and hit both buttons and hear the crew talking after about 35 seconds. Coke and Lionel for this price is impassably a great buy. If I wanted the real train sounds for my other set, it cost as much as this whole set. Four stars, only because the engine has many plastic pieces, but not entirely plastic. The detail is ineradicable though.
