For your viewing pleasure a series of photo run-bys (is that a word?) of the Gold PE Berk at the NJ Hi-Railers. After seeing this engine at York I actually cancelled my pre-order. After hearing all the great comments on the forum about it I flip-flopped and re-ordered it. I'm glad I did. Looks great, smokes great and sounds fantastic. I hope they come out with some more cars for it.

Very nice.
Hi Chris,
it really looks great, I hope you have it there tomorrow night. I'd like to see it in person

It's on a siding all set to go. See you tomorrow.
Great video of the GOLD Polar Express.
To be honest, I do not like the gold edition at all. I preordered the BLACK version and I must say it is a wonderful locomotive. It runs extremely well. I couldn't be happier with it.
A Great eye catching train and it sounds fantastic.
Great sounds.
Great video! The opening high speed run-by makes the Gold PE look "Bad As!" Thanks for sharing.

I was intending to drink beer and talk to my train buddies, but if you insist! <G>
Great video Chris!

It is a striking looking train, you can't miss it.

Cute train but the best part of the video is the two Erie Lackawanna box cars in the background LOL
Good move, Chris. We love ours as well. Thanks for the great video. 
I still think the problem at York was crummy lighting in the Orange Hall. The photos I took with the flash on looked a lot nicer than the train did in person
I liked it from day 1. It makes a great looking train.
Thank you to those who made and shared this! Beautiful to see it in action.
If they'd made a commemorative version of the PE 6-31960 set, I would have picked that up instantly.
Chris, I did want to mention that this is an excellent video of the Gold Edition, the best I have seen since the engine came out a couple of weeks ago.
We have had a lot of fun with ours and you have to see one in person to really appreciate how nice this set really is.
Good move in changing your mind.
That Golden PE set is beyond words, Lionel did a beautiful job on the engine and cars. The run by video just brings out how great this set is. Thank you for posting.

After seeing Chris's unit live with 3 coaches and the observation car running our layout - I am in. Going to find one ASAP
