- Unboxing and run of a nused 2011 MTH PS3 equipped Blue Comet Pacific 4-6-2 steam locomotive. The engine is in perfect working order and looks great. This model will replace a PS1 (upgraded to PS2) Blue Comet model I already have. Yeah, its not prototypical of the Potomac river valley but everyone should own a Blue Comet.
I've always loved the Blue Comet. My father had a prewar standard gauge Lionel Blue Comet and when I was a child, I received a Lionel MPC Blue Comet set which I loved. I really do like MTH's PS3, the sounds seem to be 'more alive' compared with PS2 which is still excellent. You've got a beautiful set there. As for the dust on that "new" old engine, get a new, soft bristle paint brush and that will help clean around all of those details, nooks and crannies.
@asdfdsa45 yes, blue comet also has a very special place in our collection
Congrats, Ken! The Blue Comet is one of my all-time favorites! Pacific's are some of my favorites, too. We've had the PS1 model since I was a kid and eventually got the PS2 model for the extra add-on details and better features. It's such a beautiful locomotive! Enjoy!! - Ryan
Ryan, thanks. The Blue Comet was our first MTH RTR set in 2002. My son picked it out in the catalog. I've since upgraded just like you to newer versions for sound and detail. Before I sell my PS1 (upgraded to 2) Blue Comet I'll do a comparison video.
Railroad is looking good Ken.
Really great addition. I'm sure almost everyone would love to have one like this.
I'll be selling the PS1 (upgraded to 2) version I have soon. Let me know if you know someone who may be interested. Would love for it to go to a good home.
Beautiful engine, Ken!!
Nice addition! I have one of these MTH Pacifics in the B&O blue from the more recent release and its easily the best smoking engine in the fleet! Look forward to more layout updates!
@rgoscale yes. Hopefully we can get it going strong with some new content.
Well done Ken! That's an amazing Blue Comet, and it is an excellent addition to your collection! 👍👍
The PS3 version is definitely nicer than my PS1 version. AND I got it for a price equal to or less than what I can sell the PS1 (upgraded to PS2).
Thats a gorgeous engine and you have a beautiful layout so far
Beautiful Blue Comet Ken.
That engines kinda spiffy! ❤ 😮 😊
I agree! It's simply a beautiful steam engine. It must have been a sight back in the day. With most trains being black, brown this paint scheme really shines. I love the gold pinstriping too.
THAT IS A REAL NICE PIECE YOU PICKED UP KEN. CONGRATS AND GOOD LUCK WITH IT. 🙂😉👍👍 I RECENTLY PURCHASED 2 LEGACY FEF-3s, THE 844 AND 836. I ALREADY MADE AN UNBOXING VID OF THE 844, THE 836 WILL BE UNBOXED EITHER TODAY OR TOMORROW. I HOPE YOU WILL TUNE IN TO THE VID. PEACE AND BLESSINGS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. 🙂🙂
Thanks man. Subbed your channel today. DUDE, you got guts taking your woman to Trainworld. My wife be like "You got another box from UPS"
Awesome video 😊
That engine is stunning
Is the tooling the same as the PS 1 version?
That's a score
Chasing every new feature will make you homeless
Willam, I think the PS3 model IS a new tooling. The detail of the wheel spokes and some of the air compressors seems finer. Handrails and ladders are finer as well. Its a great model and I appreciate your comment. I'll be doing a side by side comparison of a PS1, PS2, this PS3 and a Lionel Pacific in the near future. Stay tuned.
@@99thObsidian I will
The Pacific is such a classy engine regardless of the roadname
Is it cheaper to buy it off of ebay?
Depends on the condition...
I've got a few engines from eBay and from Trainz in the past year. Buy it now prices on EBay are usually high and typically are the price the seller wants for the item. I've won some eBay auctions by bidding late at my max bid amount. I have gotten some good deals using that technique. Trainz on the other hand will lower the price of items periodically. Trick there is you need to know what a good price is and be willing to risk missing an item if someone else buys it before you.
I don't know if I can afford them.
@@RonnyTheEngineer There is a very nice TMCC Lionel scale B&O Pacific on Trainz right now for just $550
@@99thObsidian I'm sorry. That's more than what I could afford.
Ken. he~y Love it~very interesting ,goodnight,
