Bowser HO Scale Alco RS3 Pennsylvania Keystone. First Impressions and Planned Repaint.

I take the Bowser HO scale RS3 and get out on the layout to test it. I pre-ordered this Bowser Alco RS3 from Trainworld with the intention of repainting it in the Southern Pacific Bloody Nose scheme.

Great share Steve nice video bowsers are great locomotives good luck on the change up. Looking forward to the update 👍🏻

[@SPSteve]

thanks Mike! They're sweet runners. I already have the shell stripped, maybe get some primer on it later today or tomorrow. I appreciate you watching!

[@JoeG-firehousewhiskey]

That's a very nice engine. It's a great addition to your layout

[@SPSteve]

Thanks Joe. It's in SP Bloody Nose paint now.

I just got the C&O 5600 and 5601. They are fantastic locomotives. A bit loud out of the box though.

[@SPSteve]

I agree they're very loud! Excellent locomotives for the money.

[@admiralseabass8993]

@@SPSteve yes, highly recommended!

[@MikeyDee25]

Great looking loco Steve, but you're killing me with the repaint - I'm a PENNSY fan. 😮 Also, that's a Sinclair VHF type antenna on the roof.

[@SPSteve]

Sorry, no disrespect intended. I just want an SP RS3 and Bowser doesn't offer an undecorated version. This locomotive was the closest to match the Cotton Belt RS3. Thanks for the antenna info.

[@SPSteve]

Thanks man! I've seen other guys paint over SP locomotives and it always bothers me. We like our favorite railroads. I appreciate you! @@MikeyDee25

They don't sell those undecorated???

[@SPSteve]

If they do sell them undecorated I didn't see them. An undecorated model would have saved me a lot of work stripping it.
