  • this is by far my favorite engine ever made, i've seen each exiting prototype every summer since I was little. is this set still available anywhere or is it sold out?

  • @vash0010 MTH's website cannot locate any dealers with the set. However, MTH's website says that Eastside Trains in Kirkland, WA has the engine by itself so I'd give them a call if you want it.

  • Dude Thanks a million for that awesome video. I've been looking to buy DM&IR articulated, but I couldn't any videos on youtube or Mth. Your layout is amazing to. If you've got a Santa Fe Blue Goose Hudson lying around, Id love to see a video of that

  • @bradstrains Who knows. A model engine's pulling power depends on a bunch of different factors as well as some randomness, so you never know how much it'll pull until you try.

  • @esiegel76 Why is it less powerful? No traction tires? Hey while your testing scale is up can you test the DD40 if you still have it? Thank you.

  • @bradstrains I've tested the Yellowstone and it yields about 2 pounds 8 ounces of pulling power, so it's not quite as strong as the Challenger, despite the extra wheels.

  • @esiegel76 Have you tested its draw bar pull yet? Is it stronger or heavier than your challenger? I think it would be stronger because it has 16 wheels in drive VS 12 wheels in drive. And Thanks For replying

  • @bradstrains It has 1 motor, all wheels driving.

  • Hi Eric, great review. I have a few questions. Does it have a 2 motor all wheel drive system or a 1 motor all wheel system like lionels 4-6-6-4 challenger?

  • @CaptainDynamite110 Because the engine was so long that it needed another bell on the tender, that'd be my guess.
