I have the CN Jce in orange set aside to pick up on the weekend I absolutely love them the cw-44's is a fantastic engine 👌 and thanks for demoing it for us can't wait to getting mine this weekend
You will be delighted with your purchase. These are great. I appreciate the feedback. I demo new trains and rolling stock often with lots more on the way. -Kris
@@petere4540 tbh I have not used or purchased a scale trains unit. Intermountain announced them first and chose to go with them as I was not a fan of st trying to snake them even though theirs hit the shelf a good 6 months earlier. St does not hit a lot of stores near me as well given their particular sales strategy where they seem to be picky as to who carries their product. As for the units themselves… I paid about $100 less per unit so that helps a lot. Only difference that I can really tell is the keep alive in the scale train units. Both sound great. Both look great. They have a lot of the same features though like roller bearing caps and chain detail. I had some from the old run intermountain did so they all run well together as well.
@@GoViaorgohome I had one intermountain et44 for cn but the motor blew 2 weeks after purchase. My shop did not want to return it so it’s just gone. I stay with st instead. Older intermountain worked ok for me though
I just bought 3023 and 3008 this week as non sound but I like them and I may add sound later :). Great video there buddy and I am going to subscribe now I have seen this excellent video. All the best Peter.
I appreciate that Peter. You will not be disappointed. They run really well and look great. Thanks for the follow. I should have some more reviews coming up soon. -Kris
I would've taken another 4 points off due to the non see through radiator section, as the scaletrains tier 4 and tier 3 gevos have see through radiators, otherwise great review, And i like how you started putting the white backround for the reviews.
Thank you so much and welcome aboard! I actually got a few more since. I have all of their CN heritage units as well. They work real well and look great too.
I believe the dynamic brake sound (F4) works when the locomotive is moving.
Cool review! Just bought this unit today at a train show, and I like it a lot. And I'm an O scaler.

Intermountain has some of the best locomotives in that particular model that I’ve ever purchased their Gevos teir 4s are awesome!!
Those and the new run are great.
I love the CN heritage units. They run well together and sound great.
How do you like these compared to scale trains variants

I have a more recent video unboxing with the CN Heritage units if you would like to see more on the ET44

I have many Bowser locomotives including 3 recent cp sd30eco rebuilds and agree they all run well
Did you talk about the DPU lights on top of the front and rear ditch lights sorry if I missed it.
Great Review Kris! Thanks for sharing bud

Awesome loco, can’t imagine how huge that loco would be on my layout lol! Great review Kris!!
Cool looking locomotive, fantastic review
Gorgeous loco and great review. That model would look great on any layout.
She a bus! Pretty nice Kris🧔🚂🇨🇦🙋
Thanks! Great review. Nice locomotive Chris
That’s a nice locomotive, and a great review. Well done
Great thorough review as always!
Love me some CN. I don’t own any intermountain locos or cars. Thanks for the review. Neat how you do the scorecards too
Inter mountain loccos are amazing! They run perfectly with other inter mountain loccos right out of the box
I use st instead for my cn et44 and find they run well
Great review! Do you think you'll have any thought about purchasing one of the new upcoming Intermountain Heritage or Veterans Et44ac locomotives?
There is a couple I have my eye on including the 100 years of CN and the military unit.
You can expect an unboxing when they come in
I love it! Now you need 6 more 😜
I have like 26 of these, why I just don't know.
I will need a few more myself. Do all yours seem this smooth?
@@GoViaorgohome yes
👍👍👍Lov those wet noodles
