Thanks

Wow. Very nice line up!

I should have grabbed that same EMD scheme from Ray.

I was proud of the one I built but now it's just in the shadow! I never put the railings on her or the correct steps yet.

I have so many scratch builds at 80% done it's ridiculous.

Looks like you're right on with dimensions and everything! 

Yeah that final 10-20% of detailing takes like 90% of the time.

Joe...Very nice! Those USAT hoppers are bringing $300+ each these days.

 

I'm jealous as you have a nice layout(s) while all my trains are stashed away in a big storage unit...:(

Yes, I'd like to own all the versions! :Thumbs_Up_Hand_Sign_Emoji_large(150x150):

It's a well-built engine. Great details. I'd like to make some new ground like housings and put tiny LEDs inside (porch lights too?). Maybe paint flat black the rubber suspension on the side frames of the trucks and some other detailing. I think the air hoses should have been made flexible.

I think these are heavier than the Dash 8 models. Having different drives, it would be fun to do a pull test.

I agree about being well built and highly detailed! The extra lights would be a very nice modification!

I'd like to have the Christmas version that Sidetrack has but don't really wanna spend $800 for another loco. I have enough MTH on pre-order from Ray!
