Hi Ron... great reviews, thanks for the detailed look. I received an NS 8888 several weeks ago from Scale Trains and really like it. I did find the sound to be a little weak. Scale Trains customer service told be to drill some #50 holes in the underside of the fuel tank, which I did and it helped to increase the volume somewhat. Unfortunately, mine had a intermittent rear headlight, so I've sent it back to them. It's going on 3 weeks and haven't got it back yet. This is my 2nd locomotive from them and they do run exceedingly well.

Can't go wrong buying these trains just awsome products

[@Toaster844]

I’m starting to build an N scale layout while I clean up my HO scale layout. And these scale trains dash 9s might be the perfect run for a brand new N scale latout

Ron it was great meeting you last night @ the Scale Trains meet and greet

[@RonsRailReviews]

You too Larry. It was an enjoyable evening.

[@michaelbroshears3053]

Nice looking locos. As a somewhat old timer in N scale I’m amazed at the improvements to model equipment since the early days. I’m trying to keep the era to pre BNSF. I’ll bide my time for a release in my time frame. But really nice job on these.

Thank you for your review

[@tubeflorian]

Great content! Try a 0.5 second "cross dissolve" transition between cuts.

Ron, What number turnout did you use in your yard ladder shown in the video at 8:23? Thanks

[@RonsRailReviews]

I use all Peco medium radius turnouts, which are basically #6.

[@oldman5139]

Great review keep up the hard work.

[@michaelfedora5630]

Have them in Ho and love them. I will check out the N scale line

[@ronaldjoyce7374]

Ron, Thanks soooo much for your review and opinion, WOW that was fast, I only asked you about the Scale Trains last week LOL I’m thinking this new channel will be a winner. I’m sold on the ST’s and your channel. That paint on the BNSF was great, when I first saw it I thought they messed up and forgot the stripes but sure, the green stood out like a sore thumb. THANK AGAIN!!!

[@ADPeguero]

These locos look beautiful!

[@IMRROcom]

[@SD70MAC]

wow scaletrains superb detail than kato I should buy scaletrains Thank you for share video

[@NSSignalGuy]

I need those H2 BNSF locomotives

[@jacksonthomas1851]

Currently thinking of switching from O gauge to HO or N and Scaletrains is one of the bigger reasons of why.

[@tropicalties3806]

You'll enjoy more variety in both HO or N.

[@jacksonthomas1851]

@@tropicalties3806 I’ve decided I am switching and variety is one of the bigger reasons of why.

Having been disappointed by other reviewers, I was pleasantly surprised with the depth to which the tests were done. What matters is how the couplers perform pulling a string of cars. Hauling a string up a helix is brilliant! Interesting that 1 pulls 13 cars while 2 pulled 22 . . . Just wondering, do you have to return these 3 to ScaleTrains?

[@RonsRailReviews]

The MU performance is typical. 2 locomotives never quite double the pulling force. No, in this case I do not have to return them.

[@michaelfedora5630]

Looks like you are interested in them. They are fabulous engines I love mine in Ho and will continue to build my layouts with them all even N scale as well.

[@andrewtorres4995]

Good review Ron. The only thing I have is the horn and bell can barely hear it.

[@michaelfedora5630]

Set your CVs to a higher setting ✨️

[@mpmy97]

How are these as runners compared to Kato?

[@RonsRailReviews]

They run very well. I have no complaints at all.

[@hanklonwillingsiv4826]

Ron, I am not on other social media. Do you have a public e-mail address? I have some pictures on a unique prototype to send you.

[@markhayes6407]

Their horns and bell are soft on these models.

[@RonsRailReviews]

Volume is adjustable.
