Great review, I ordered a few of these and I am very satisfied with them. Athearn actually tweaks the Tsunami 2 sound files to sound better. You can change a CV value to not have the models startup on when track power is applied. There are also sanding lines inside the box to be installed.

Great video! I acquired all 3 BNSF road numbers and I am very happy! I personally appreciate that Athearn assigned the boards and ground lights to functions b/c with ScaleTrains they are on upon startup by default. Also, if you set CV114 to 71 that disables the auto-start feature and you can use F26 to start up and F27 to shut down. There are still details that could be improved to match ScaleTrains quality but overall best SD70ACe in HO scale by far!

Great video and review! I have the 1943 spirit of the union Pacific EMD SD70ACE. It's a great unit!

The 1982 is supposed to have a mechanical bell like the model shows. I was actually wondering if Athearn would get that right. Great review!

Bell is correct, the early UP Aces and Gevos had steel bells

Function 24 turns on the ground lights and Function 25 turns on the numberboard lights.

Pretty good review. About the only thing I don't like on this release is the number board brightness and the light bleed thru from the separate cab roof.

Nice looking locomotives! I've debated on getting one but will probably hold out for now and wait and see if I can catch some of the overflow stock on sale down the road.

There ain’t gonna be any overstock.

@@MrHunt916 yeah, I figured that would be a long shot at best, so the likely sanerio will be waiting for run 2 of these locomotives!

I think the reason for the plastic couplers is because they own the co. that makes them.

Hi Matt nice video. Hey do you think you could do a video going into more detail about your 611 with ESU sound? Also just wondering if you saw my FaceBook message? Great video and glad to see you back. Jeff aka NW611J.
