Was that a real NYC paint scheme or one created by Trainworld? Just wondering. Could some of those cars be MDC (Roundhouse)?

Thank you for doing these videos. If there is bad news regarding a new product, let it be said. I hope it will get BLI to do better quality control. We should not have to put up with such quality considering how much these things cost. For now, I'm happy with installing TCS WOW sound decoders into yellow box Atlas/Kato locos.

I really thought about buying a NW class A and Y6A or B from BLI as soon as they rerelease the models….. Now I am really hesitant. As I am from Germany and can’t easily send them back to America if there is a problem. Any other American brand that makes these locos and doesn’t have these many problems?

Hello there. I am Phillip in Australia. LS models are coming out with an updated version of these CIWL Egyptian wagons, this time with lighting installed. I was curious if you had any luck finding a baggage car, dining car or even a proper steam engine to run it authentically... I had an internet search and couldn't find anything.

Well this video got my 8 year old in my lap for 40 minutes or so... and here dad wanted to just relax. But $65 for these sets? Wow, that is a decent deal. I can't get away from the irony that the DCC sound decoder cost more than the set though.

Apparently some dealers don't want to get involved with after sales service. That is bad, especially for hobby products like model railroading. Years ago, there was "Red Caboose Hobbies" in NYC, who, if you happened to call during his lunch break, he would curse you out on the phone. Did that to me once, never bought from him again and eventually was shut down due to non payment of taxes. The BLIs look good but they sure seem to have their problems. Personally, I just don't like their sound system. The "chuff" just sounds like white noise. I use TCS, Tsunami 2, then ESU.

For what's worth; the CIWL companie must be paid by modeltrain manufacturers who are using their outstanding Logo's on the side of the wagons, and logos on packaging etc... . Greetings from 🇳🇱

FOR ANYBODY THAT READS THIS ,,,, IF YOU ARE HAVING ELECTRICAL PICK-UP PROBLEMS ON ANY BLI LOCOMOTIVES ,,, GET SOME ELECTRICAL CONTACT CLEANER AND SPRAY IT ON THE WHEELS , CLEAN YOUR WHEELS BLI SPRAYS AN OVER SPRAY CLEAR COAT ON THE LOCO'S BEFORE SHIPPING ,, AND THIS HAS TO BE REMOVED OR YOUR LOCO'S WILL RANDOMLY CUT OUT

To Whoever calls the Alco DL-109 an Ugly Duckling, *YOU ARE WRONG.* It’s a Fine looking locomotive. It has a long Angular nose that has a similarly with other Cab Units, but it’s also unique, and it’s long.

Nice video! I once rode a Tri-Rail train powered by the real-life 820 (although there, the cab car was Hyundai Rotem 520). I've never seen any HO scale Rotem cars, maybe Hyundai doesn't license them?

This is why I got rid of my smoke unit in my ATSF 3751 and added more weight in it, and I am happier with the extra incredible pulling power than the smoke stuff. To each their own on smoke or not to smoke.

The 2 Prototype trains run 16 coaches each not 18. Lowlander service goes to Glasgow & Edinburgh (8/8 - splits at Carstairs) & Highlander goes to Aberdeen, Inverness & Fort William (8/6/2 - splitting at Edinburgh). Might be why your loco is struggling.
