MMMM Kato! you can NEVER go wrong with the old Kato F7s. they are spendy, but they are brutes, tough, stong and dependible. I have heard some Ok things about the Bachman spectrums, but stay away from all the other bachman F units. If I was you, I would shell out the bucks for the Katos, I...

Oh and I thought I'd mention that I am not looking for money, rather just to provide something to the N scale community that previously wasn't avaible at a decent price. the only other functional climax I have ever seen was on aspenmodels.com and it was like $500 for the kit, give me a break!
