This review is from: Kato USA Model Train Products M2 UNITRACK Basic Oval and Siding with Kato Power Pack (Toy)
This is a great product to start our model railroading adventure. Easy to set up and ready to run in minutes. The quality of the track and all the components is exceptional. Your shipping was quick, it arrived early and the boys have had it set up since. The boys absolutely LOVE it! They take turns testing each other on who can park the freight train on the siding with enough clearance to allow the passenger train on the main. They have invited family and friends over and are already asking to expand the oval. Of course, Dad gets to play too…..

Saw the Kato M2 track set up at a train store and saw what it we be with other track setups. Saw a drawing using M2, V2, and V14. The set up was over 9 feet by 5 feet. Fell in love with the set up, then started to buy the tracks. M2 was the cheapest in Amazon. The other track set came from another internet company. Brought all three sets, and stARTED TO SET UP. tOOK 1 1/2 WEEK TO MAKE TABLE, track, and scenery. The only stuff left is the buildings, figures, and street lighting.

The M2 Track is a great way to get started with Kato Unitrack. It provides everything you’ll need to get setup and running. It is well packaged and has comes with the switches for the two turnouts.
One thing I was a bit disappointed in was the length of wiring from the turnouts and the power feeder piece. They were all a bit short and this forced me to place the controller inside the loop…which meant running the thick power wire under the track on my table, making a bump in the track. It would have been better if the feeder piece was located on the same side of the track, such that all three wires come out the bottom (as seen in the photo). This is why I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars – but really it’s more like 4.5
The Kato track itself is very nice. It snaps together easily, stays together, and the trains run well on it. I’m using this track with imported Japanese n scale trains, so I’m not sure how well it might work with other n scale trains. Separation of the track can be a bit difficult – just requires a strong tug, but if you aren’t careful, you’ll whip the track around like Indiana Jones.
