Lionel Veranda turbine start-up

This is the HO Veranda lionel put on the market few years ago. It is now out of stock everywhere.
Even if the details do not match a brass turbine made by OMI, this engine is really nice.
This video will show you the turbine startup sequence on an analogic environment.
Set the speakers volume at a good volume to enjoy the sound of the QSI system !!!

Very poor detail (looks like Lionel toys). Athearn version has much better details and cost less. OMI last run is still the best

@ShapurKing

I do agree. The Athearn will be much better (not released yet). I own the Standard version and it's almost perfect. You can see a video of the start-up in my page.

I plan to purchase a OMI 3-units Turbine when one shows up on ebay, I'll install the same QSI sound decoder.

lionel makes HO?

[buzomeu]

Sometimes yes :)

[nardp96]

besides this do u know of any other locomotives lionel makes in HO?

[buzomeu]

I remember Lionel did release a HO Challenger with QSI sounds. Many variants were available !!

I wish Lionel was made in the USA.

i wish lionel would get into the h.o business more their o gauge stuff is too expensive so i switched completly to h.o. Lionel has the best sounds for trains out of any company but they just cost too much God Bless

I have the Lionel "O" turbine and it's TERRIBLE!

Only has 2 motors and "will hardly get out of it's own way".

Glad HO's better, the sound 4 one thing....

Actually I would be interested in the sound chip or generator for my stereo, are these avaliable or only comes with the model?
