Flimsy, lightweight plastic chassis with cheap unreliable motors. Unfortunately, there are few alternatives.
I have used over a half dozen of these Tomytec motorized chassis. Be aware that they are made of lightweight plastic, easily warped and damaged if disassembled. The motors are very cheap, and not powerful enough to pull more than a car or two. Adding much more weight would overload the motor.
Every one of the motors has burned out when used with a DCC system. Further, the wheel flanges are too deep to use with fine scale track. I have had to rebuilt them with Kato or similar motors, and even then, the chassis are not rigid enough.
Unfortunately there are few alternatives.

Inaccurate dimensions
The quality of the wood and the thickness is fine but the widths is inaccurate. Only a few of the pieces are actually 1/16" (0.062") wide. Most are noticeably wider (0.070"), some are narrower and some vary along their length. Better quality control is needed. 1/16 x 1/16 basswood is generally much more accurately cut.
