Nice video, I just bought my 4019 last week and tested it and all worked fine. This is my first Vision Line. I do have a little (just a little) buyers remorse, as to get the added smoke features you have to pay around $2700 with taxes. I'm a MTH guy and have three Premier Big Boy's, they don't sound as nice as my Lionel 4019, or smoke as good either, and no command control (4012 & 4018 PS-1) but my newest MTH (last one by Mike Wolf) 4014 looks and sounds good, but I paid $1000.00 less. Oh, and weighs about 4 more pounds engine + tender than Lionel 4019. I'll be running my Lionel 4019 on my clubs layout soon, can't wait! On another note: Robert Jackson is incorrect, those are smoke deflectors, that is the proper name. They keep the smoke up, but probably not that good as they were not widely used. Thanks for sharing your Lionel Vision Line Big Boy, keep it up!
Honestly surprised it does that well on any curve narrower than O-72 lol. I think the locomotive by itself can run less than O-72, the main reason Lionel recommends O-72 is for the tender if I remember correctly. Hell, some of the other full scale articulateds can get down to as low as O-48! Though they aren't very happy doing so haha.
those panels on the side of the smoke box are not smoke deflectors cause think about it, how do they help with the smoke while it's still inside the locomotive, the smoke comes out the top through the stacks and the smoke deflectors are usually on top where the go up beside the stacks.
So happy birthday to CSX.
She is a beauty 😍

So cool!
Well done! 👍👍
What a beautiful big boy! 👍😎

I noticed something out of sync on this locomotive, the 2 middle wheels on the front set on the left side look like they are not contacting the rail
any updates to 072 yet?
i wish 4014 had smoke deflectors

Big boy carries a big price over $2000😩 you want to play you have to pay.
