Thank You to who all replied. Yes, I love this engine + the sounds. The headlights are very nice & bright LED's.
Awesome engine Tom. Thanks for sharing.
Hello Tom. I understand that the color of the mane on a NS road diesel has a meaning. What does the red mane signify?

I researched this short blurb about the color choice, but it may not be want you wanted.
That is very interesting!
Finally got one these for myself. After seeing the Corner Field Model Railroad Museum addition it made it an easy decision. Runs pretty good on O-36 but looks better on O-48.

I love this paint scheme. Finally picked mine up a couple weeks ago, but haven’t opened it up yet.....been running the BNSF Oil Train set that I picked up at the same time.
My only comment is they must have used the same tooling as the NS Tank Train set from several years back, as this engine also does not have sun shades. Wish they could have added them.
EDIT: This thread inspired me to unpack mine this morning and run it for a bit. Looks great, runs great and as with all of my Legacy engines.....sounds great.
