That is a good looking train. Those are some of my favorite engines. Thumbs up.

I like how you added that old Amtrak locomotive with the old paint scheme I thought it was a baggage car going so fast

Just saw your link on the OGR Forum / Cool layout, with a lot of action. • Cheers from The Detroit & Mackinac Railway 🚂

+trainroomgary Yup, that belongs to a friend of mine. You've probably heard him if you've listened to the announcements on most MTH subway sets.

[@MetroSonic]

Awesome!

[@Porschedude8]

Great!

[@matthewrotchford]

Looks great and I might pick up the 202, but what Train Route is the sound set to? I know the veterans one is the Texas Eagle so I'm curious about what this one has.

[@RailRide]

The locos are boxed up (they've been ever since this video), but I'll keep your question in mind for the next time I run these, in case you haven't gotten an answer somewhere else by that time.

[@amtrakamerica1913]

Could you do more videos of your Amtrak P42s?

[@RailRide]

+Amtrak America There will be another video with these units, but I cannot predict when. They will be assigned to my Auto-Train and will run with it to show off the newly-extended auto carrier section (7 more cars than in than the last video)

[@amtrakamerica1913]

RailRide They’re beautiful looming units. I have heritage unit 66 and have been very impressed. Unfortunately I cannot run it right now because it is being converted to 2 rail O Scale and having the pilots fixed.

+Amtrak America I also have the Phase III Genesis plus the F40 used for the exhibit train. I'm waiting to commission a custom painter to repaint some extra coaches into the exhibit train scheme.

[@amtrakamerica1913]

How did you get PS 3.0?

[@RailRide]

It's the electronics package built into the locomotives. All MTH locos have it going back a couple of years or so.
