Thanks Peter for the video of the solar train. Nice job on the video I could really see the details. It is keeping me entertained while I anxiously await the...
Very nice video! Thanks for posting. Is the locomotive a special version with no lights at all or is it that they are just not visible in the video? Tapani...
In a word, WOW! This little unit is going to be awesome... I think we're going to see ALOT of scratchbuilding and kitbashing done on this baby once it comes...
... Just not visible. There are three lights on each end, I think. Definitely at least two. I don't have it in front of me. But they are typically very...

... Adam you're right, but even with keeping the same chassis all these variations sure require more tooling than releasing one loco only. And to my eyes, the...

Nice video, Peter, and I was especially interested in the audio. Have you tried that engine on a 'normal' setup? I get a lot less whine. How high was the...
