Speaking of the F-40 does anyone know how the cabbage unit will work as a push pull unit in lash ups?

I see no reason to think they wont work like any other legacy lashup. 

Program the cabbage as the lead unit so the lights and sounds work, then program the powered unit as the trailing unit in reverse. 

Put them on either end of the train and go.

The real question is whether the kinematic coupler mechanism has a strong enough spring to be shoved against without doing something odd to the train handling. The kinematic couplers dont seem to like to be pushed around curves.

@Dave Olson Hello! It has now been around two weeks since you last posted about the F40PH arriving at your docks, since it has been around two weeks. Do you have any updates on the status of these locomotives? Thanks

Hi Nick. These were actually just received in yesterday. A couple more days for sorting and paperwork, and they'll ship back out!

Ryan and I are planning on doing a video for these engines as there are a couple of cool features to them, including a lash-up feature where the CrewTalk will come from whichever unit (powered or cabbage) is leading the train. More details to come!
