History

This set was an improved version of the Super Chief starter set. However, this set has long since been replaced by the Evolution Advanced (EVO), which itself has been replaced by the Evolution Express Advanced (EVOX).

Super Chief Xtra Starter Set

This set offers a minor upgrade to it's predecessor, the Super Cheif. This set upgrades the throttles to the DT402 series over the DT400. For radio variations, this allows for full duplex radio operations, negating the need to tether the throttle for certain operations.
