This set works! I inherited this train set from my uncle. We would set it up around the Christmas tree every year. It still works great. Has lots of pieces and parts. Everything is as shown in the photos. I don’t know if the floodlight works as I haven’t hooked up that lightbulb since I was a kid. But everything else seems to work just fine. Most of it comes from the Boy Scout train set of the early to mid 50s. But there are other additional pieces that were picked up when my uncle was a kid in the 60s.
