Eric's Trains Vision Line Niagara Review

Eric

That was a great video. It gave me some tips for my VL Niagara.

Great review Eric; thanks for your time editing and producing it. I have this same loco and have enjoyed it except for the water spray effects on the tender. You made a solid point about using software version 1.6 to activate and use that feature-it may be the reason mine always activate the sound, but does not always issue forth the smoke effect. I'm using version 1.3 in my CabII and Legacy base at the moment and that might be a contributing factor...... I do know the fill port is very sensitive to meniscus bubble clogs even after the fluid disappears down the fill pipe.

The other thing that "gets" me is the Towercom message from the "engineer" that his "coal is almost empty, may we proceed" dialog; what moron pulls out of the terminal minus his fuel load?????  The same issue exists during some of the diesel dialogs as well. Maybe that dialog needs updating????????

Nice video

Well done.

Thank you again Eric - always appreciated 

Nice job and very informative.

Excellent, Thank you!!

Thanks  Eric! I always look forward to your video.

Good video.  Worth a warch

Great video & review!

Great video as usual Eric, I really like when it came through into the Carolina Room. I can't wait to see more of the work you've done on the layout.

Terrific video and review as always, Eric.  I heard the bell but did not see it.  Did I miss something?

Good video ERIC.

Should have put a side note in about the Loc tite they used on the screws for the traction tires.  Had to send my VL Niagara back to Lionel because of this issue.

Very nice video!

You forgot to go over teh details of the locomotive.  You did history of it and Visionline, then went into the Visionline features, and finished off by running it, but you didn't go up and down the locomotive to show the detailing.   That's what I enjoy about your videos, seeing the close up detail.  Otherwise, nicely done.  It almost converted my brother to O from N gauge.

The rear coupler on tender does not have  a sensor. The forced coupler sensor is on the eng . The front mounting stud of the rear truck bolted  to the frame.

Well done! Thanks for all of the time you spend putting these together!
