I brought home a Lionel GP-35 (New York Central) from York (great deal!) and it is a stone cold winner. I have heard lots of Lionel Legacy diesels and unless I am mistaken, the GP-35 has the best sound yet. Jumpin' Jehosaphat, what fantastic sound!
Diesel growl, ramp up, whine, horn, bell Simply the best I have heard from Lionel.
I should know, I've had quite a few.
And for less than $400.
Kudos to Lionel.
Bravo !
Scrappy
