    It made me childishly happy that NYO&W was the paint scheme for this video! Definitely looking forward to getting my hands on one of these to replace my dead lined Spectrum version.

      We've got a number of videos from his layout. The PA and E8 videos being the most notable.

      I grew up in Sidney at the end of 13 Cherry Street by the south yard of the O&W. Do you have any videos of the entire layout? Very impressive!

    As i'm an old timer in the hobby, my biggest concern is the pulling power of this or any new loco, steam or diesel. Sound is phenomenal we 're able to do all kinds of tricks with lights and sound, but if it can't pull it's own weight, thanks Bill for mentioning the 18 freight cars. I notice Bachman is producing a 44 tonner is this just ironic , or what, because there's no comparison Rapido is topps in my book. Pulling power, pulling power, in New Haven scheme.

    Love it!! Great work.
    Sad to not see a Middletown and New Jersey or the Hoboken Shore Railroad, but I suppose that is what the undecorated models are for!
    Consider me floored by how far model railroading has come.

    Could a 70 tonner be far behind? HO Scale needs one with end handrails that have drop steps and MU connections. The Bachmann unit lacks both and is incorrect for some prototypes.

    • @rapidotrains

      A definite possibility!

    Rapido makes the best model trains. I’m not interested, but I think I will get one anyway because Rapido makes fantastic quality Locomotives and train cars. If I’m not mistaken, I think I saw one in Milwaukee Road which is one of my favorite roads not to mention CNW of course. 😅😇😉

    Hi Bill, Layout looks great, especially the Sidney station. Is there a listing or pictures of auxiliary details that might come with the undecorated models (awnings, headlights w & w/o visors, etc)? Also are there pictures of the undec bodies with no additional parts installed at all? Definitely interested on several!
