Hey all! Just a reminder that I have a second channel, (Track10trains railfanning) be sure to check it out! I also have a Instagram @track10trains_official
the mainline ones may have used the same tooling also. But the drive systems were different on each version. The tooling originated from the P1K version.
I have two of these locomotives in the CP Canadian red what I’ve noticed though it’s kinda weak. I have a Santa Fe from a Bachman starter set that has way better pulling power and runs much faster. The locomotive is silent the Santa Fe is loud but I noticed right away much slower.
I would try and just have it run around your layout for a little bit and see what happens. These ones ran a bit rough until I got them ran in a bit. And if that doesn't work I would call Walthers, they can probably help you out.

NIce video! Very informative
Great review loved it can't wait to see more
Glad you liked it!
I own a CP one. Lovely runner.
Nice! Glad you like it!
Did CP ever have any? I've never seen one
Nice video, thanks for the history of the engine!
Glad you liked it!
That is actually a leslie horn, not a Nathan. Also this is a rebranded Proto 1000 model. It uses the same tooling.
Ok. I thought it was a ex Mainline model.

Oh ok! I knew they all had different drives. just didn't know about the tooling.
So is the drive also the same as the Proto 1000?
@@JMLoll The Proto 1000 models used a drive very similar to an Athearn RTR drive.
You use Hiawatha hobbies too!?
Good review.
Thanks!

That 3 chime is not a nathan it's a leslie rs3l which it's not accurate to the actual up locomotive it would have a nathan k3 or k3h
I actually own that exact train but csx
How do you like it? Do you recommend it? I'm looking at that specific one.
@@sergiosotolongo7286 i really like it! Its got decent power, decent grip. But has no sound and comes with knuckle couplers but is overall great!
Do you have the YN2 version or YN3? I have the YN2 version.
@@DavidAllen-dj7sd I’m not too sure
hey can u make a video on how to apply the plows on this engine? I just got it and idk how to put them on XD
You can glue them on using super glue.
@@Track10Trains ok thanks :) should i take the shell off to do it too?
No there would be no reason to do that. Just extra steps
@@Track10Trains thanks, i was able to do it :)
C&O never hsd them. C&O went out in the early 70s. And the GP15 was made in the 80s
They had a few but they where always in chessie paint. Just like the "IC" Dash 9s that CN has
how do you add the plows?
You can glue them on using CA
I bought one recently and it barley worked big disappointment

5:10 (+/-) The sound is horrid, not at all realistic. Otherwise, thanks for a good review.
Its not a sound locomotive. Thats just the noise of the motor, nothing more.
It still sounds loud. A motor change would certainly help.
