The two new G-scale model trains in the Thomas and Friends collection have just arrived, so I built a little layout in my living room and put them to the test. Paxton and Diesel in G scale are very fast, although you'd never know it in the first 11 minutes of my video, where I run them at about 60% of their full potential speed. But after that, I turn the controller up to the max and these trains really go! In fact, I bet you'll think I sped up the video to make them look faster... but I promise you that everything you see in the last three minutes of the video is shown at 100% normal speed. There were no tricks used to make these trains seem faster... they really are as fast as what you see in this video!
If you're a fan of Thomas & Friends, I'm pretty sure that this is one model train video that you will really love!
In addition to Paxton and Diesel, this video also features Emily pulling the custom Jim Zim passenger cars.
I bought these large scale model trains from www.trainworld.com
