Wow, this is the exact model sd40-2 I ordered from Jim back in 2013. He never delivered. Had to fight tooth and nail to get my money back (late 2016). Glad to see someone was able to get this exact one built. Looks exactly like I envisioned it. Glad MCC has got better management as TitanTrains, I see delays are no longer as bad. Best of luck to them.
Wonderful Video my grandpa used to have a outdoor steam 2 person in his backyard . I would really enjoy to hear the train going more than narration more peaceful. I appreciate your narration thank you I respect train’s
@@shanelipe2552 years ago sold it too much maintenance was a over 500 pound steam engine kit he built for my grandma and himself to ride around house outside passed away we did not know what to do with I guess they just gave it for scraps not shure.it was the same engine Walt Disney built for his backyard.
No way could I even afford to lay track, let alone buy one of these! But it never hurts to dream a bit. These are some amazingly detailed locos and very attractively detailed.
I’ll stick with n scale thank you very much, 14k for this,I can make a whole layout in a 30x30 room with 14k with 6k remaining for trains.But it was a cool video and I appreciate you guys making it
Another awesome loco review! If I had a good team of people around me with all the help and talent needed to build a loco from scratch, I would definitely build a CSX SD40-3. Not sure if it'd try to go for 1.5" or 1.6" scale, but it would definitely be cool to make. Watching these videos is an encouragement to maybe build one some day!
Yes, we’re looking to put together reviews of the Allen Ten Wheeler & Mogul. And we’ve been in communication with Godshall’s Custom Machining about reviewing their Mikado locomotive
Nice review thanks for sharing. I noticed a small error in your description of the reservoir tanks on this loco and the Titan B&O GP9 you also did a review on back in January. You incorrectly stated "There are 2 hydraulic fluid reservoir tanks" on both locomotives. There is only one hydraulic tank on both locomotives & they are mounted closest to the hydraulic pump & engine. The other tank (looks just like the hyd tank) is the fuel tank for the 16HP engine & is mounted the furthest away from the hyd pump on both loco's. You can see the electric fuel pump installed on top of the hyd fluid cooler mounting plate & it's fuel inlet line connected to the top of the fuel tank on both locomotives. The tanks look exactly the same so no biggie was an honest mistake IMHO. Both are very nice well built locomotives.
I absolutely love this locomotive ❤❤

What happened to your grandpa's train?

This channel just gets cooler, and cooler as time goes on!!!

That's cool. I enjoyed seeing the Katy caboose and cars in the consist.
Awesome locomotive guys 👍👍👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎 AWESOME ❤️ video
In addition to the horn and beacon, there’s the “firecracker” antenna! 🙂
Now that's what I call serious model railroading.
Awesome!

Nice vídeo!
Looks sharp. Glad that the sound is very muffled only wish that it is a Diesel for the real sound.
This is cool and all, but I can't help having a bit of a chuckle seeing the people sat on these things.
Yeah, that gets me too
Soooooo much fun at ANY age.
@@shanelipe2552 It's fun yeah, but it makes me snigger because it looks so cringe.
Like the video .Enjoy it very much.
I enjoyed it.
How about the hydraulic motors on the bogies ?
Wow!
Interesseting video :)
Sweet engine! Any steam reviews coming? Take care!

@@TheSteamChannel Nice! Can’t wait to see it!
You sure this isn’t a 12”:1’ scale engine in a land of giants.
Nice job on the paint but there was no such things as ditch lights in 1976.
A lot of the original SD-40s didn't have them but the ditch lights were later added when they were rebuilt to the SD-40-2.
@@Running-with-skizers Agreed, but not in 1976
when is the next video series of building U.P #844
It’s already been posted
Scotts locomotive is beautiful ! what is the minimum radius recommended for a six-loco?

Beutiful motor the two middle wind shield wipers are wrong they don't have Pantograph wiper arms on the two center windows.
Where do i buy it and from who ?
That’s literally in the title
she's good
Did the owner of this train pass away, if so rest in peace
Yes, Scott passed away not too long after this video was filmed.
How long did Scott get to enjoy it?
@@jockellis this was filmed in July of 2020 and he passed on August 17. He took delivery of the engine earlier in the spring of 20’.
The propulsion of steam locomotives is in real scale. Why isn't that the case with the diesels?
Just got home from a event in lake
Wales fl.
Oh WoW. A guy could really get the chicks with an engine like that.
How can it be owned by a “late” person? Wow you do know late means Dead?
Yes Karen - the unit was owned by the late scott weatherford. Go talk to people like they are idiots elsewhere
