Review: ScaleTrains Rivet Counter ET44AC CN Heritage EJ&E, BC Rail, IC, WC HO Scale DCC & LokSoundv5

WOW, those lights look amazing. They keep getting better and brighter, just like they should look. Nice locomotives.

[@da-joe-trains]

They look great! Ground lights too which I keep forgetting to mention

[@mech-eng-24]

That EJE orange looks so good man

[@da-joe-trains]

It's hard for me to pick a favorite! Love them all

[@Steven_Williams]

Cool review! I have the Intermountain EJ&E and CN units.

[@da-joe-trains]

Sweet! I think they're the only other manufacturer who has done them so far. I only own one Intermountain and it's a fantasy Rio Grande ES44 that had the decoder removed. Will need to make a video on that someday

[@josephnelson4530]

Neat video! Keep them coming!

[@da-joe-trains]

Thanks, definitely will do!

[@BritishRail60062]

Nice models. I used to own the Intermountain ones. I might try and get these once I have moved house.

[@da-joe-trains]

Thanks! I don't have an Intermountain ET44 to do a video comparison but I will say I put the two side by side at my hobby shop and the ScaleTrains versions just looked so much better all around, at not too much higher of a price. I'd definitely recommend the ScaleTrains ones if you're able to!

i think the CN heritage schemes were well done by CN other than that huge patch on the conductor side with CN on it. rather distracting. But as far as the models go, they seem perfect. I will say IC 3098's horn sucks. it sounds like the engine when it is going full speed. so if you run it at slow speed, to me at least it will sound less accurate. it almost sounds like the Doppler effect more than anything.

[@da-joe-trains]

Good notes, I'm in agreement. The IPO logo is quite large. I want to say the horn almost sounds like a live recording, which would have probably been taken at speed. Still think it sounds great, and the paint schemes are so cool!

[@robertsiebenrock3997]

Quit with the paper work, we see that in about every video! We're capable of lookig at it ourselves! We want to see the engine, and it's features!

[@da-joe-trains]

Not a whole lot of manual talk in this video, I'd rather give people too much info than miss something they might be interested in seeing/ knowing

[@NWFProductions]

Believe it or not some of us actually pause and read the paperwork. I reprogram all my stuff custom and sometimes this info is very nice to get a brief look at. Da Joe Trains does a great jobs on these videos and I don't see you making review videos. Stop criticizing peoples work.

​@@da-joe-trainslike ur heritage units you have sharp looking

[@da-joe-trains]

Thanks, I love these paint schemes!
