A fine review. The Berks are some of the best steam locomotives ever produced and this is great model. I remember the 759, from when I was a kid and I've enjoyed watching the 765, running on our rails, in and through Toledo, but I never got a chance to get inside the cab. As far as the whistle goes, I've always found that the first one is the most accurate. Whether it is the best, that is up to the person running it. Either way, an excellent video, as always.
ZAC, I GOT ONE, ! ' N. & W. 759 BERKSHIRE " FROM MrMuffins just 4 days ago !! Man she's " BEAUTIFUL " !! Cant wait ta see her running on my layout brotherman! GREAT VIDEO BRO!

Totally love the Berkshire!! The whistle is one of the best sounding!! I could have bought all of them if I could! Ended up with the 777 and Metca chessie not a fantasy guy, but I just couldn’t resist!!
Awesome looking engine, Zac! Lionel really did do a nice job. That little golden spike in the number board was a neat detail. Enjoyed your review. I noticed on my new 4-6-0, that Lionel toned down the brightness of the marker lights as well which I am very happy about. Bill B.
Hey joker, thanks for the history lesson. I have this one on order as well ,just waiting for it to be weathered before it is sent to me. I’m only 35 minutes away from Steamtown. I’ll have to go check it out. And the first whistle is my favorite. 👍

Thanks Bill. Happy you stopped by to check it out. It does seem Lionel is headed in the right direction with the marker lights.
Gorgeous looking locomotive! 👍
Thank you sir.

Looks great brother! This one has became my favorite engine in my fleet
It is pretty solid. I don’t know if it’s my favorite
One beautiful engine!
Thank you sir.
Cool story, bro! Seriously great story. Never knew that. Nice touch with the Alaska RR rollin around!
😆😆. Thanks for watching. The Alaska was by default.
Another awesome loco added to the collection!
thanks mike, it really is a solid engine.
@ the marker light’s definitely look better
Awesome video man love the new engine!
Thanks for watching. I appreciate it.
Very nice piece. Great dedication to your grandfather.
Thanks sir
YO I LIKE THAT THATS A NICE LOOKING TRAIN
Thanks I appreciate it.
Nice , I like it .
Thanks
Awesome video 😊
Thanks for watching.
Some times new trains don’t smoke very well
There kinda dry when you first get them
Give it some fluid. It takes a lot to wet that wicking
Material
I for sure over filled it.
Off topic but I rode the McKinley explorer from Anchorage to Denali a few years ago
Thats awesome
@ from Anchorage to Denali, not Alaska, that made no sense😭
Awsum “;-)”🚂
Thanks
The cab end of 759 and the front end of the tender don't match. (Check the floor plates.) Tender possibly too tall or rear of loco sags.
I will check next time I’m around it
Impressive Berk! Sounds excellent, especially the whistle.
thank you for watching, i appreciate the comment.
