Sweet! Thanks!
Very nice Sean. Also nice work on the layout!
Sean,

Thanks Sean,
I agree, The RailSounds seem to be identical to earlier Legacy K4's, other than the cab chatter. I sure like the testosterone tender over the tiny original. Gives the big Pacific a serious attitude look.

Cool video
Thanks for taking the time
PS Love your layout
Engine with tender looks nice. But I'm disappointed in the whistle. That's the same exact whistle Lionel used in their previous Legacy K4's along with the chug. This video below is not my video, but I thought it gives you a good comparison to the new one with the long tender.
"But I'm disappointed in the whistle. That's the same exact whistle Lionel used in their previous Legacy K4's along with the chug."
Since all 425 of the real K4s' had the exact same whistle, cylinder size, boiler pressure, etc., why would you expect them to sound different?
Yes, the whistle is the same, but its is a K4 so..... However, they did change the crew talk, which I like better.
Nice engine. And yes the crew talk is great! Enjoy Sean.

No, I'm not saying it's a bad whistle, I just would of thought to change the tone of the whistle a little instead of using the same chug and whistle from the previous K4. Other reason I'm mentioning is because I do own a Legacy K4, not the long tender version and that has that whistle and I really don't like to have 2 engines with the same whistle. But the K4 with the long tender is still nice.
Actually for me, it would of been a seller for me, if it had this whistle below. That video is not mine, but that whistle on that M1 is a PRR 3 Chime.
I thought the new one sounds a bit different because the tender has 2 speakers
