New Legacy Santa Fe Northern...anyone got some pics or a vid?

I’m not disappointed

Thanks for posting!!! Sharp looking loco! Sounds great too.

Took this last night on a temporary floor set up testing out a new track plan.

My impressions of the engine:

Engine is spot on proportionally.  Details are solid, not quite as good as some of the very latest stuff out there, but then this is slightly older tooling.  Still very good.  Comparing to photos, it’s got most everything critical in the right place.  It is lacking a little immediately above the drive wheels, but I am picky.

Sound and smoke wise, it’s phenomenal.  Best smoker I have, but it does guzzle through some fluid quick!  Whistle is the same from the first Legacy run and recorded from the actual 3751.  Whistle smoke is the best I’ve seen.

If you’re a fan of the 3700 class, you should definitely add it to your collection.

What a sweet loco! Running out of reasons not to get one.

Here is one of my videos that contains the Blue Goose version:

Thanks for posting all the videos. Really appreciate it. Blue Goose version is definitely a fun engine.

Is there any confirmation on the spelling of "Missouri" on the MOPAC 4-8-4? As I recall it was misspelled on the catalog art...

TrainMaster04, can you tell me the make and model number of the locomotive with the green hull at 0:40 in your video??

All the engines in your video are incredible, the blue goose looks great and is my favorite. Too bad Santa fell never did the blue goose just like lionels.

Santa fe's version is very nice but the Lionel version is way better.

Thanks and I agree with you. The SF 3600 is a stunning locomotive but it would have been nice to see it be continued into a northern. Like what Lionel did here.

It is one of Lionel's latest batch of EM-1s cataloged in the 2019 v2. The product number for this particular model is 2031110 and has the MSRP of $1700. I am currently trying to get a product review done on it and I will post it here on the forum under "What Did You Do on Your Layout Today."

Good to hear!

TM,  Am I imagining it or is the whistle on your EM-1 the same one as on the VL and Legacy Big Boys??  Been watching your video above and some Youtube videos on the VL Big Boy. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2ap0c6DWCM

OOPs; didn't mean to hijack this thread for the EM-1; will repost this question on TM's review of the EM-1 at https://ogrforum.com/...0#151491806127049290.

Here are some pictures:

Rock Island looks nice.  1st picture I’ve seen.  

Well it looks like Lionel has finally learned how to spell Missouri.

Happy to see the MOPAC typo is fixed- and that it shipped with a coal tender

I see the left side ladder has popped off the ATSF model.  Mine was the same way.  Just glued it back on.

Thank you everyone for posting your great videos. They convinced me that I should get my own! Went and saw the good folks at Trainworld this morning.

I am glad you were able to still get one and are happy with your decision! Congrats!

Another note on this awesome engine...the bell sound is one of the best I’ve ever heard.
