thank you.  I was actually going to post a request for a video.  I never liked Baldwin sharks that much, but in this scheme, on that train, they suddenly are hugely appealing to me. 

Very nice Nicole - You've done a terrific job with the production too!

Yes, BUT, the orange color on the cars does not match the locos by 0.1% ....Just kidding of course. Looks really nice, great smoke. Cheers!

Very nice looking.

Very Nice!  Thanks for posting.

Nicole, you've got a winner there.  The engine and cars look great together.  Thank you for posting video.  Do the coaches have LED lighting?  Lighting looks perfect.

That is a nice looking Train. Your side tracked Phoebe Snow caught my eye!….
Good Video, thanks for posting.

Gotta love SP Daylight!!! I have a Daylight train I pull with Alco PA's of GS4.

Congrats!

It's a beautiful thing.  Literally.

Thank you for the good video.  Although I never cared much for SP colors, those engines just look great, and the cars are beautiful as well.

Thanks everyone. I bought these engines mainly because of how lovely they look. Even if they are a 'fantasy' scheme. I had been thinking about getting some for a while, and then Charlie from Nassau Hobby mentioned in a post that he had found some Daylight sets in his warehouse That together with a great price on the Sharknoses from Charles Ro was the trigger to order a set of each. I'm really glad that I have done so. 

 

Steve, the lights are incandescent bulbs, with LED lighting only in the tail of the observation car. I agree with you that the lighting is really good and very even. The interior detail is great too, especially inside the RPO car.

Very nice Nicole and like the sounds of the engine.

Great addition to your motive power.

The Southern Pacific was always my favorite western Railroad.

Super addition to your collection. The Daylight color scheme is one of the best in our hobby. Thanks for posting the video.

WOW!  Very nice set.  Recording really captures the sound; smoke is a nice addition for realism on A & B units.

Nothing wrong with a fantasy scheme on a toy train layout.  Especielly when it looks that good.  It looks like it wants to go fast now.

Nicole,

 

Who made the Daylight Cars & what is the Product Number?

 

Fred

Hi Fred, they are the Lionel 6-35445 Shasta Daylight 4 coach set.

Nice looking Sharks and cars.

 

Excellent.  I need to go searching....  

Very nice set of cars and Shark Nose Diesels. The smoke units sure appear to doing a great job. I like the colors and sound.

Thank you for posting the video.

Nicole,

 

Great train.  Great job on the video.  I chased those cars a while back and love them.  Thank you.
