That's impressive for a model. I can't wait for the FP9's to come out, my local short line has an ex CN ex VIA FP9 painted for SP that I have been wanting to model.

Very nice and very good details too
do you get in project to do the black and grey CN's heavyweight cars?
I get two light weight coach and it's very great and,I was impress for the details quality,I should reserve mine now..lol

Good attention to detail as always. I have transformed m entire passenger fleet to this great brand. I can't wait to get my Canadian but I don't care how long it takes if you guys are puting this much care into your models. Quality is something that cannot be repaired after a product is built. it will forever stain a vision a person has. Ask Broadway Limited and Prescision craft about that.

that was AWESOME !
my keyboard was covered in drool !
can it do 0.4 mph with 5 coaches ?

It's nice to see a manufacturer recognize a need for improvement. Less than smooth drive at all speeds has kept me from repeat buying of lesser manufacturers.

Nice to see this kind of improvement. Question:
How is the top speed affected by the change of gear box and motor?
lpesce5440 2 years ago
It will come down, obviously. But we had plenty of room to play with as our top speed was the TurboTrain's 170 MPH.
Our aim is 90-95 MPH, and we're still working on it to achieve that. FP9As were geared for 89 MPH and the LRC was geared for 100 MPH, so 90-95 MPH is a good compromise. If we need to bring down the top speed a bit more to keep the 0.4 MPH slow speed, we will.
