Running my loksoundv5 3977 challenger at my model railroad club
Переглядів 180Місяць тому
This video is of my Broadway limited imports 3977 challenger locomotive! I have made alot of modifications to this model, including a new loksoundv5 decoder with custom sounds, custom lighting, some interior cab detailing, replacing the smoke unit with a speaker, and painting the safety valves along with painting the whistle brass. I made this pretty similar to what I did to the 3985, with them...

I'm very happy to say...

This is a current project I'm working on. the engine is broadway limited and the temder is off of a bachman Niagra. It has primer paint applied (what you see in the video) and I plan on painting it up with NYC streamlining. I also plan on adding loksoundv5 in it, as well as fire box lights, cab lights, and running board lights above the wheels. #hudson #newyorkcentral #hoscale #modeltrains #train

    Ssuggestion: dont even use that thing that make the video darker like what you did at 611 edit because its harder to see anything and brighter color is more attractive (literally the reason that daylight is painted in bright colors) but you can use that in the intro to make more impact when the video kicks in
