Nice. ScaleTrains does provide a great and realistic model. The details are truly remarkable and prototypical for each road name and number. Thanks for sharing. 🚂

Good review, I just got one of these. I went off on a tangent and got the Navaho Mining, I just liked the color scheme and the separate rear horn with it's different sound is really neat. I guess I will have to order some more coal cars, as I only have one. Have a blessed day.

I have the latest GEVO, pretty cool model, amazing puller but I absolutely hated the prime mover sound above anything but idle. It sounds like the speakers are blown as all it does is burble around the track and sounds nothing like an engine. I recorded it and sent it to scale trains and they said thats how its supposed to sound. So like my other scale trains I ripped the lok sound out and installed a board and an newer tsunami2 with the GEVO file and it sounds amazing. I also rewired the sugar cube speakers. Scale Trains runs them in parallel so I wired them in series. Im now completely satisfied with the model even though I had to spends more money to get there. From now on I will only buy units from scale trains without sound and install my own. Beside they have the loksound encoder locked down for options based on whats prototypical. Lets say I want the ditch ligths to flash on my UP model, with the loksound its not possible because in real life UP doesn't flash their ditch lights. Prototypical is cool but I would rather have options.

The UP yellow is real ugly. Even if it's the real color used on the locomotives, it doesn't look right on a tiny model. Fun fact, the color UP uses for calendars and their website is completely different than the actual color for that exact reason.
