Lionel H24-66 Train Master

Eric,

 

Well done product review as usual.  The movable louvers are a really cool feature on the H24-66  

Great video Eric!  Really impressed with the sounds!  Liked the info on labored engine sounds as well.  Thanks for pointing out!  

Great review, Eric.  Minor prototypical details can be added...no big deal.  The big deal is how this rendition of the H24-66 is so thoroughly refined.  The moving thermostatic vents are really trick, something that could be automated with a Legacy controlled servo.  Can't say as I'm familiar with the cats eye headlight lens...odd looking.  That access hatch is trouble though...definitely a future paint chipper. 

 

Thanks for the tour.

Great video, Eric.  Thanks for posting.  I have this engine, but have not been able to run it yet due to tearing down my temp layout to begin construction of a permanent layout.  This video definitely has me excited about running this engine on my layout, hopefully some day soon.

Hi Eric,

 

Great review as always.

 

Thanks

Alex

Have the CP version and it is sharp.

Looked like the paint got scratched when you removed the control cover?

Very nice review.   Which review is next and when?  Also I noticed you have never done a review on any Amtrak engines, are you planning on doing any sometime?

im thinking of getting the Southern Pacific one soon, great review as always

Nice review, thanks.

I have the CP version and find it is avterrific model, but who knew about the moveable vents?

the big improvement over the earlier CC trainmasters is they did not motorize the rear fans. They were difficult to see spin and made alot of noise as they were driven by plastic gears.

Another great review & video. Thank you.

Thanks Eric, Always Enjoy Your Reviews.

Always a pleasure to watch your Videos Eric!

 

Wonderful work.

 

Thank You

Great video! Thanks Eric, I have the Southern model but never knew the  louvers were movable. I think the sounds are great on this model. One cool sound is when the air compressor turns on and starts pumping away to its imaginary pressure limit then shuts off as the unloaders unload the compressor with a hissing sound.

Nice video, the FM sounds and detail are great. 

Good review as always.  As a side note on the movable louvres,  back in 2004,  MTH did a run of FM Erie built AB units that had this feature.

Fantastic engine and review as always!

Pretty good ERIC, thank you for the review.

Nice job, thanks for posting

Great job, Eric. Lionel needs to hire you to do promo videos because, as usual, I had no interest in this model until I watched your video. Now I want one. Much better detail than I would have imagined. Wish they offered one in Virginian livery.

great review, always learn a lot from them
