I had the opportunity to test run a pre-production sample of the C39-8 with factory installed LokSound over the weekend and would like to thank ScaleTrains for the opportunity. Check it out as it leads a coal train on our NS Asheville District layout. Also featured in this video is our custom built coal mine that is actually operational. You can learn more about how my father and I built the coal mine here:

As always, thank you for watching!

Looks like ScaleTrains did a good job on the C39-8s! Can’t wait til I get my Conrail C39-8
It's totally lit asf
PN 8212 runs within earshot of my house on an almost nightly basis... they hit a home run with this model for sure, the sounds and appearance are perfect.
That’s awesome 👏 Gotta be one heavy train, even with 5 powered diesels.
That sounds great. Can’t wait to get mine. ST out did themselves this time. Also I love the coal loader. That ice machine outside the office is a nice little touch. Thx for sharing. David
The 8212 is still in service. Working out of Lansdale PA on the ex Reading Bethlehem branch. Great paint job.
Luckily I’ve been able to see Penn Northern 8212 in action! Great video, love some of the camera angles!
Wow, blown away!! Great job!
Excellent love the layout! You’ve done a fantastic job!
Excellent camera work as always Josh!
I plan on getting one, but original NS, long hood forward style :)
Excellent layout and the addition of sound makes it almost life like. You need to visit a switching yard and record the "Roll out as I call it" sound. The sound of coupling a long train as it ripples down the track.
Great idea! With Lok Sound 4.0s that is definitely possible! I'll have to see what I can do! Thanks - Josh
Awesome video!
Great video! I like the see-through grills at the back of C39-8. The functioning coal loader is also great! Greal layout! Max.
amazing i need a layout like that
Fantastic ! 👍😁
What's moving speed at the coal loader plant? Equivalent to 5/10mph? It's great! Discharging too! Thanks tons for the video; enjoyeed the ride! Richard
Pan Am Railways needs to get some
Great job!!! 👍How did you keep the gate from getting stuck with the coal when you close it?
Can’t wait to get mine in!
Awesome stuff, just wondering does anyone make this in N scale?
wow you have the timing down perfectly. and makes for great operations on the layout.
That is fantastic. Your layout is an inspiration. That is really neat watching your layout grow and seeing the early videos and how you progressed and developed everything. I have enjoyed following you for years and continue to look forward to what you have coming up next.
8212 is no longer running with Norfolk Southern, it runs with Pennsylvania Northeastern along with 8211.
We were chatting about woodchip cars in New England road names earlier and I gotta ask....when will there be a woodchip loader and train down the road? It only seems fitting.
that coal loader is so cool. I'm planning on getting a few of the ST C39-8's.
I know it's not right to lust after another man's possessions but I'm only human and I'd love to have this cool one of a kind layout!!!
Awesome video 5 star's *****
I like rum long hood forware.
They should add smoke so we can make it a blown turbo as the old GEs do that a lot
Would you consider selling the 8212?
great video i like american trains, greetz from belgium
Loved the video. The coal loader was amazing. Do you have a way to unload the cars?
rotary dump at the top of the layout
Great Video! That C39-8 looks nice. Scale Trains did a nice job!
Greetings from Poland! And Thumbs up! :)
I got a kick out of the red pinto at crossing
Very reallistic. Great job.
very nice layout. What kit is the coal loader and what did ya'll do to it to auto load or at least load when you say so?
Thank you. This is a walthers flood loader kit, customized with a custom hopper and dispensing system. Here's a video we made explaining the loader: ua-cam.com/video/wOsz_HFZD5E/v-deo.html
mine is slow to start makes it tough to consist
Awesome video, very prototypical. The coal loader works super, nice work indeed. Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍
Very nicely done video. Coal loader was magnificent. LokSound just okay imo. Horn has no depth and sounds flat and almost in the back ground. Thanx for sharing. 👍👍
Great video, very nice opp sessions thanks for sharing, tell your father the layout is amazing.....
Did you make a how to video on how to make a coal loader like that where it will load the coal? I was looking but I couldn’t find anything unless I over looked which is very possible lol! Me and my grandpa would like to make something like so just curious!
I want to buy your layout!!! 30k
Hey my name is Sam and was wondering if you could help me, I use a Iwata eclipse airbrush and I use tru-paint color for my railroad models and the paint is not coming out smoothly even though tru-paint color said the paint is ready to use but am not getting a nice flow, am also at 40 psi. Any tips or tricks would be useful, thanks and great video.
Wow that is pretty neat Thank you for sharing! Jac
Thanks Jac!
Great video, love the hopper fill. Have one here ( full size!) in Western Australia for loading bauxite except it's a clamshell arrangement. Have been thinking about modelling it so this gives me lots of ideas. Thanks for posting.
Josh I finally saw one of those weird blue faded southern hopper cars! Very interesting shade for a chipper car
Hey Josh at 10:09 through 10:15 watch the first car...you almost had to use the vacuum
I didn't notice that until I was watching the video afterwards! But yes, it was a close call!
That first car behind the lead engines was barely hanging on! Great video though
Omg the horn! Too much haha.
Hi, great layout its come along great, I was wondering is there a way to contact you through other means? I am building a layout room and would like to do a similar layout but and I have a few questions before I start.
What will be the average length of your trains? Will there be DPU? Well, well, if only I would have looked at the whole video before I wrote this!
I can't wait until a company designs a speaker small enough for ho locomotives that actually sounds good.
Excellent video Josh. Love the flood loader.Beautiful scenery compliments the train running through the various scenes!
Thanks! -Josh
Just curious if you have the building plans for the coal hopper / loader?
always great to see coal ops in action cant wait to build mine on
a future layout
How much 'coal' do you need to fill all those hoppers? Also, how do you empty them right now?
We have several of the Woodland Scenic containers full of coal that are used to fill the hopper. Right now we unload them by hand, but are in the process of building a rotary dumper.
How can I setup blma signals for dcc and how can I connect them to my track
Are you going to put the CR logo back on that locomotive?
How much does this hobby cost I might start doing this
THANK YOU...for sharing. Nice.
Great channel! Some of the best planning and detail I have seen on here.
Very cool Josh!! Thanks for sharing.
Cool man!
Awesome review and demonstration TY
Wow that was awesome, nice video!
So they are released
Not yet. But I believe they are scheduled to be this summer.
great locomotive c39-8 always had a distinct look that sets it apart from other locos sounds awesome gonna have to put my order in for one for sure great video love the layout check out my channel rons trains and more comment subscribe thanks
I know this is a promo for Scaletrains but does anyone know when Intermountain's Dash 9s are due?
Never LOL. It's been what, 4 or 5 years now, since they've announced them. Thank God ScaleTrains is coming out with one.
All those live loads, I'd be scared of stringlining the train on a curve.
10:11 it almost did!
When you get free time let me know how much you paid for the C-39-8
This is a pre-production sample and is not mine, but you can find the pricing here! www.scaletrains.com/collections/rivet-counter-ho-scale-ge-c39-8
Great video, Josh! Is that locomotive just a test scheme or a conrail? It doesn’t really say.
Terrell Time the Pennsylvania & Northeastern acquired theses and still run them. This scheme is indicative of their patch job.
Thanks for the information!
That has to be the best thing ive seen on youtube when loading the coal how much does all that kit cost?? Great layout by the way cheers paul
This is a stock Walthers coal loader, which was customized, so no working kit like it is available right now. Thanks for watching!
8212 is in my Home town
Awesome! Thanks for sharing
I love coal trains thanks for sharing
Josh, you've mentioned the possibility of a coal train derailment and at 10:11 the first TopGon behind the 3rd locomotive tilted over and I was like, " This is it."
I was waiting for someone to notice that! Haha It was a close call for sure, but luckily the vacuum stayed in it's box!
That's about as close as it gets.
Very realistic. Love how you have programed the loco's to move that slow, so as to continue to move while loading. Would love to see the unloading process in action. Great layout.
Todd, the unloading process will be done via rotary dumper, which is actually located directly above the mine. It will dump directly into the hopper that feeds the mine. As of right now, however, it is not completed. It's on the to-do list! Thanks for watching - Josh
The old loadsout-empties-in taken to a new level... First time seeing this since I reverted to "armchair modeling" years ago because of work. Great modeling and layout planning.
far out !!!
What do you use for coal loads?
Woodland scenics coarse coal!
Ok Thanks
Very nice.
Awesome!
how is the work on the unloader?
As of lately, not much progress, but we'll get to it eventually. Thanks! -Josh
Great video as always. I preordered 5 in the ns scheme. Wish I saw this video earlier. The conrail scheme with the faded logo is killer looking. I never noticed the faded logo before, until I saw this video.
Thanks John! And 5 will definitely be a nice looking fleet.
5! Woa! That’ll be a nice fleet
