    That is the exact same locomotive and road name of my first DCC locomotive! I don't see CN around these parts (Kansas City, where BNSF and KC Southern yards are near), but I needed a DCC engine to try out with the Digitrax controller I had purchased, and this was all they had in stock. Their retail price was crazy.

    I'm a european model railwayer and I though about buying american locomotives, but my problem was that all of the diesel ones has the same shape (mostly and I find it boring a bit), but I love the steam locomotives and I has a collection of german, polish and yugoslav and primarly hungarian trains most of them from Epoch V or VI. I loved the video and I work with TT scale (1:120). I buy usually Tillig Bahn or Busch.

    What kind of Atlas track do you use as I'm beginning to plan my ho scale layout and the help would be appreciated!

      I used Atlas code 100 flextrack and I can’t remember the turnouts right now. The track in the thumbnail of the video is Atlas Code 83 track though which is a little more realistic but you pay slightly more for it

      Walthers code 83 is better in my opinion when compared to other brands of code 100 or 83. If you can find the deal, 10 pieces for $60 then that makes it worth it.
