    Excellent video. Made me laugh and be jealous....we are fortunate that Jeff and the Loft persued the idea and you did the video. Normally, I like protypical but there are a very few fantasy paint scheme I love. This paint is my favorite because it shows off detail well and pops against most backgrounds. Much appreciated. Gary.

    Man, all my buddies think I'm a kook for liking this but I don't care at all. I have to ask though, I noticed you got them 21 inch passenger cars. Are they heavy for an engine to pull? They don't seem like they would be given they don't weigh near as much as a k-line die-cast 21 inch cars. I'm trying to put together the world's first true 3 rail o scale 1:48 scale shasta daylight consist. The train length would be 18 to 22 cars. There's actual footage of a shasta daylight running with 22 cars pulled by a GS-4. My peers say it's impossible but I say it absolutely is. I would be using golden gate depot cars in concert with them though which them cars will make the train heavier. But I'm kinda rambling now. Hope to hear back at some point, thanks! Congrats on this stunning big boy, Gizmo.

    • @gizmotrains
      @gizmotrains  ปีที่แล้ว

      @ChargerPrime the Lionel 21” cars are fairly light compared to die fast for sure. Obviously many factors to consider, but I would say any modern era engine should be able to easily pull that many passenger cars. The seven I’m pulling is a breeze.

    • @ChargerusPrime
      @ChargerusPrime ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@gizmotrains that's what I figured. I'm not sure what kind of pulling power the newer GS class engines have, with lionel putting out engines thar exceed 5 pounds of pulling power, I'd say 18 to 22 cars is a snap.

    • @gizmotrains
      @gizmotrains  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @doctordeath.5716 they didn’t put the red handles on any of the “oil burning” models. That’s because generally the ash pans were no longer used when an engine was converted as there wasn’t any “trash” from the oil like from burning coal. Since this one has the oil tender, no handles were included.

    Gizmo, we also have bought this same DRG Rio Grande Big Boy from Jeff and the train loft. Its our first vision line, our first big boy. Please look at our postings on the OGR forum posted by us, thetrainboard and leave your thoughts there. We have spent the last 10 days watching our engine derail on our 072 atlas 0 curves . No success. The fourth front driver wheel derails on our 072 curves . We have posted detailed closeup videos. You have the same engine. We wonder if a spring is missing on one of the yellow rods that support the boiler as it swing and moves thru curves. All of our 60 or so engines navigate our 072 curves without any problem, including our scale mth triplex, our mesabe steam, many others. Our board is 18 ft by 24 ft, atlas o track. Please take a look, since you run the exact same engine, in fact your 2 big boys. We are at wits end. Gary

    the thing that gets me is that the DRGW heritage Unit that UP runs is NOT a scheme the grande ever ran! I understand what they are going for but think of it as if Norfolk Southern took 8101 PRR heritage unit with the Horseshoe curve on the side. PRR fans would have a fit. I don't hate the bumblebee scheme, just please keep the mountains in the logo

    • @gizmotrains
      @gizmotrains  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes UP could have been like NS, but I think like CSX recent schemes, they went with more of a inspiration type scheme and didn’t particularly want to match a specific paint scheme. Besides, railroads evolve over time and their schemes change regardless, so you have to try and capture the essence of what the railroad stood for. For me, I’m happy with the art of it.

      @@gizmotrains I don't want my criticism to come off as hate. I just kinda want both to exist it guess. I guess I just want the option for the traditional black and orange. Maybe the Russian black scheme that was only used on the narrow gauge.
      I love the Rio Grande. It's a rich railroad history. I just want to be able to have options you know
