a new loco I bought a few month ago and in my other topic (workbench) I've pointed out the lack of led's although the light circuit board is providing space for them but not connected.
I'm somewhat disappointed with this arrangement as there are add-on parts to establish a prototypical loco as a display model, with other words they've putting more emphasis into display models than operating models

the model has a PCB with a connection for a PLUS22 decoder (I've added an ESU sound decoder
the loco has (now)

1.) headlights (standard)
2.) high beam (fitted myself)
3.) tail lights (standard)
4.) interior cab light (fitted myself
5.) electrical pantograph connection (fitted myself)
6.) 2 wheels with rubber tyres (standard) (added another 2 wheels with rubber tyres)
7.) have to get the right size loudspeaker (fits into the hole next to the sound decoder)

the details are all of good quality however there are many add-on parts (taken me some time to figure out where they go (instruction sheet supplied) and most of them are for a display model only ,
printing is satisfactory,
running characteristics are fine
brightness of lights are fine
weight: dismal 441 gram from a previous similar model of 537g almost 100g less metal
overall a very nice model
