Those engines are really nice. I'm not modeling that era (modern) mainly because of space issues. It needs a lot of room to run them properly. They're long and heavy engines. The layout you got is more appropriate for them. But I'm impress by their beauty and how smooth runners they are. Especially the one you got out of the box at the begining. Things have changed so fast in the past years. Engines and rolling stock are getting more and more prototypical. Price is getting prototypical too !!!

@@bambamwilliams5419 I don't even have a 'real' layout and I "had" to get one. And once the RRHMA got well underway on rebuilding the 3985, I decided to get one of those too :D ... ... I'm in O gauge though, so a _heavy_ lift to do those. Literally (20 pounds each) and financially O_o (even though two years apart).

I have those covered hoppers as well. Did have an issue with them derailing at first but I loosened up the truck screw about a half a turn and it solved the problem. The 3 pack did it for me as well on the pricing.

ACes are ma fave. Got several on my ray road. You had a better experience with Lombard Hobbies than I did Train World. I ordered a 844 like you have through Train World a month ago and it was damaged and I let them know and sent them pictures through email and they told me to send it back and they would fix it the said they fixed it and I got it back in the mail on Monday and it wasn't fixed now I have to send it to Athern to get it fixed and Train World offered nothing to make it right. Wont do business with them again.

Everything looks great, when you use the stabilizer 👍🏻👍🏻. Never say never when it comes to locomotives and rolling stock, LOL You’ve been talking about the Big Boy for a while, you know you want one… Your blessed to be able to get everything you have, I only wish… 😊 Loto is at a billion or more by now, think I’ll do something crazy and by a ticket 👍🏻. If I win, Lombard Hobby will love me, for sure 😂 (my wife, who knows 😂 Sure she loves me 👍🏻) Great stuff as usual and thanks, Ron

Thanks for the Athearn Genesis SD70ACe review. I'm happy that they finally added the roller bearing caps, snow plow grab irons and extra lighting effects but still disappointed that with the amount that they're asking for, no power boosters are included.
@EvanstonSub
@EvanstonSub 6 месяцев назад
Yes, that would be nice. However, I see no difference between ST and Athearn when it comes to dead spots. Pretty much zero for either one.

Series one ACe for Union Pacific wore nightmare units that got the nickname "Thunder Cabs" which were never used as mainline Lead units, mostly used as DPU, it's good to see the Railroad listens to their workers when putting in another order for Newer units. Too who doesn't know what "Thunder Cabs" are well the crack between the cab body and the Nose of the front of the windshields, series one didn't have that crack which would be so loud crews couldn't handle them at Notch 8 running due to Vibration and other sounds. Other Series besides Series One which have the crack making the Nose and Cab body 3 different pieces are filled with a rubber lining to help with vibration as the unit at Notch 8 makes less sounds and are a lot quitter when running. Real Fast way to tell and Old version over a Newer version just look for the Crack Line.
@EvanstonSub
@EvanstonSub 6 месяцев назад
Very interesting. I'll have to check my other sd70ace for the crack.

@@bnsf909 Try setting CV 61 at value of 100. If that doesn't work, set CV 62 at 100. You can also try CV64 (master brightness) to a lower value but it may effect all train brightness level. Just experiment with the values, they go from 0 (off) to 255 (max). Rob

@EvanstonSub
@EvanstonSub 6 месяцев назад
I like them both. But overall I'd give the edge Scaletrains.com. Better pulling power and better decoder. ESU over soundtraxx
@HolyMoley2u
@HolyMoley2u 6 месяцев назад
@@EvanstonSubI have both but programing the ESU is good only if you have the ESU programing devise. I think the DDE program in Soundtraxx beats ESU as far as operator's not having to bother with engine exhaust sound levels during inclines and declines. Have you set your DDE levels? Have you checked the weight difference between Athearn and Scaletrains locomotives?
@EvanstonSub
@EvanstonSub 6 месяцев назад
I have tried the DDE. Not been impressed, but could be due to my lack of programming talents. I have weighed both brands. Scaletrains.com are heavier, but has been closing the gap. I program ESU via JMRI DecoderPro. No problems.
