The Northern Great Lakes E-8B diesel locomotive, numbered 1100, is a powerful and reliable workhorse of the era. Its authentic paint scheme and lettering, including the iconic "Northern Great Lakes" logo, accurately represent the real-world counterpart. The locomotive boasts a 5-pole motor for smooth and quiet operation, as well as operating headlights and number boards.

1. Detailed and Accurate: The set includes a detailed and accurate model of the Big Sky, a carferry that operated on Lake Superior. It is a great addition to any HO scale model railroad layout.

2. High-Quality Construction: The Walthers set is known for its high-quality construction. The models are made of die-cast metal, which ensures durability and longevity.

3. Realistic Features: The Big Sky model features realistic details such as working lights, opening doors, and a detailed interior. It also has accurately painted and lettered cars.

4. Easy to Assemble: The set comes pre-assembled, which means you can start using it right away. This is a great option for beginners who may not have the skills or patience to build models from scratch.

1. Expensive: The set is relatively expensive compared to other HO scale models. This may be a deterrent for some hobbyists who are on a tight budget.

2. Limited Compatibility: The Walthers Big Sky set is only compatible with HO scale model railroads. If you have a different scale, you will not be able to use this set.

3. Limited Functionality: While the Big Sky model has some realistic features, it does not have as many functionalities as some other HO scale models. For example, it does not have a working engine or sound system.

If you are looking for a detailed and accurate model of the Big Sky carferry for your HO scale model railroad layout, the Walthers 145879 Big Sky Passenger Scale Ho Set is a great option. The set's high-quality construction and realistic features make it a worthwhile investment. However, it is relatively expensive, and its lack of functionality may be a drawback for some hobbyists. Ultimately, whether or not to buy this set depends on your budget, preference, and model railroad needs.

If you are a beginner or an experienced model railroader looking for a detailed and accurate model of the Big Sky carferry, the Walthers 145879 Big Sky Passenger Scale Ho Set is a recommended purchase.
