From a railfan perspective; it can be irking seeing nothing but GE’s. Especially in the last six or so years as NS and CSX have purged their rosters of EMD’s. That being said: from an engineer’s perspective I love running GE’s, any variety of the Heavies to be exact. Despite many comments picking on them for reliability, out of the 100’s I’ve ran, only two had issues and nothing that couldn’t get me over the road. On the flip side I have EMD’s go down on me all the time. Doesn’t matter if it’s a 40-2 or a 70M-2/ACe.
Let's be honest it's not the Gevo itself that is mundane and unappreciated, it's the giganic bloated rail megacorps that own them. I actually really like late era GE's, I just wish there were more railroads around still, so we could get that diversity of details and paint schemes that is so sorely missing from the mainlines of America today. Same with the ACEs, it's not the locomotive itself people dislike but the era of change and the changes themselves that they represent.

Those are some very valid and good points! Nice to get an insider perspective on it.
Gotta say, that this video is amazing! I love how Jointedrail made those ES44AC Models there! Great video you made there!👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Appreciate the support!
Great video! You put these locomotives on display like a Lincoln Navigator commercial. Nice music!!
😂 thank you
lincoln navigator is a pretty mid car
Amazing Editing! You Really Need More Subscribers!
Thank you, I really appreciate that!
I have to admit this is pretty impressive, great job dude!
Thank you!
Are those horn stock for each railroad model or do they share the same horn
I have the up, bnsf.
Apologies for the delayed response, every gevo besides the Norfolk Southern one have their stock horns.
BNSF actually has a lot more ES44C4s
3250-3281
4200-4299
5533-5546
6500-7199 **as mentioned**
7921-8399
I picked one roster line for conciseness 😂
i have all these ones you showed in video. JR sure makes some good stuff
Indeed

That's a very good point actually, well said.
Where did you get the cryo trans reefers
Can we get more edits like this, like one for the rrmods dash 9s
There's def more on the way
How good does ts 22 handle amd gpu hardware in terms of visuals? Every trainz title has issues rendering windows and objects on high end amd gpu's.
Not sure, I have a Nvidia graphics card.
@DV_Graph1cs Yeah, my experience with nvida with ts 19 was fine, but they have a rendering issue with amd cards with locomotive windows, fences, etc.
Bro, how are you actually getting these shots? 😭
