Great review! You should consider featuring T1 Trust content in this video as I have with my videos (end screens, cards, links to their main site and facebook, etc). That way everyone who watches your video, will have easy access to T1 Trust content! Here's one of their better videos: th-cam.com/video/7HTst6SvBK8/w-d-xo.html
My favourite locomotive. My Grandfather retired from Baldwin as the shop foreman. I once found a photo online of a brand new T-1 at Baldwin with a few of the folks from Baldwin and sure enough I noticed that one of the men was my grandfather. I have been searching for the photo so I could download it then print it. I have quite a few photos from the PRR in use as my PC's background for the TV. I hope the T-1 trust gets the new one finished. Hook up a full consist of heavyweight Pullmans, RPOs, Baggage cars and refrigerated express cars like the real ones had and the pulling power will be just right!
i think the T-1 is a testament to man kind as far as steam locomotives and is one of the most beautiful machines ever built. It's cool they are going to rebuild one and i can't wait to see it when it is back in operation.
And you can basically tell by looking at it like you said earlier that it pulls a huge number of boxes behind it you were right the pulling power is insane
Great review of my favorite locomotive. I've built a super detailed Bowser kit of this engine. I'm so crazy about this engine class I've got another one awaiting a build. Can't wait to see the real one when it's finished!
Most of us experienced model train collectors can tell what detail is on the locos that you polnt out all the time. Working the units smoke and sounds and running the products is what we want fo see more of. Great stuff you do even tho hearing about detail seems too long at times.
Understand T1 trusts efforts to built one from scratch. Just hope they modify it in such a way as to overcome the flaws in the original design. I have seen on other sites on public media stating this locos top speed is 156 MPH. Would love to know where this figure came from. Nice model tho
Great loco. but the smoke is always the best feature because everbody has sound nowadays but not smoke. Worthless without smoke and James was not talking about the smoke very much. What a great MFR!
Marcel Dekerpel just do it little by little if you have to. Don’t have to drop a bunch of money even tho we want to haha Some track here and there some rolling stock now and then it adds up fast 👍🏼
Nice review James, man that locomotive is huge it is about as large as my challenger.😉 Great job again James, keep up the the great reviews, have a good night.😊❤️🌙👍🏻👍🏻
I wish broadway limited would work on some of the other non-brass steam locomotives rather than remaking all their old paragon 2 locos. Would to see those early challengers.
12:18 Wouldn't it be more like eight chuffs is prototypical. Not to nit pick but it's pretty obvious from old film that had sound. I really do enjoy your vids
The 2nd and 3rd drivers are blind ( NO flanges ) but are also elevated and do NOT come in contact with the rails I have 14 inch spur sidings that this monster ( ALL 5 THAT I HAVE ) goes through My main line is around min of 45 inch ... It handles anything you throw at it GET UM !!!!! YOU'LL LOVE UM
That is one awesome locomotive! Let's hope BLI do the NKP 2-8-4 Berkshire as Walthers have made it abundantly clear the will not be doing another run of theirs. Instead they want people to buy the Bachmann one which is inferior to theirs.
They gotten away from putting crew members in the cab..I've bought 6 locos with no firemen or engineer. We' ll how much a flop it is. Smoke units are there flaws. Had throubles with there port hole versions. Smoke will blow threw the boiler shell and the oil resedo will get the smoke unit circuit board and engine circuit board wet and blow out the smoke units and or the decoder. This has the same sound package as the n scale version that I have and hasn't giving me any problems. First bli engine with no problems I own...I see it blowing more smoke out the front stack on a angle. I'd fixed mine blows out both stacks evenly.
Broadway Limited did a good job with this locomotive model. The locomotive compares reasonably well with the Boo Rim brass model, recently released, which costs $3500 dollars.
Wear gloves when you take out the loco from the box and please don't push it on the track. It has incredible low speed and excellent detail, well done Broadway.
I'm standing about 3 feet away and at an angle from the coupler with the camera. That's why I put the camera dead even so you can see for yourself if I'm off in my guesstimate.
Mark Williams well GN was major and so was NP and soo line but you don’t see models of those and also missabe was a major railroad and one of the most vital railroads to the country
Support the T1 Trust!

If that is a success I think they should add a joint between it like standard mallets to negotiate the curves instead of the original Rigid frame
844Steamtrain I already saw that video a few months ago but thx!
the t1 boiler is still in making proces i think but the number plate and the headlight are done
@@trainfan-ks5hk but then it is not a T1

Did you ever find the photograph, Sean?

Wait they're building a NEW T-1? Epic!
Of course they would!
Because they were godly
And did not deserve extinction
nice review I always liked the PRR t1s I wish the T1 trust success
I'm an O gauge guy, but I enjoy your videos......
And you can basically tell by looking at it like you said earlier that it pulls a huge number of boxes behind it you were right the pulling power is insane
Beautiful piece....wish they also made an S1.
Nice! One of my favorite PRR Steam Locomotives!
this is the first model that made me say wow
Great review of my favorite locomotive. I've built a super detailed Bowser kit of this engine. I'm so crazy about this engine class I've got another one awaiting a build. Can't wait to see the real one when it's finished!
This model train is awesome James.
One of my favorite steam locomotives it’s a shame they all got scrapped they were really reliable great video
Thx for the review. I'd almost forgotten about the Duplex.
Good review, lovely piece from Broadway.
Thinks for tackling the time to do another great video

When he was talking about the bell, I thought he said "nice Metallica reference there" LOL
For Whom the Bell Tolls!
Very nice review! I love the review so much I am going to buy the T1 in HO. I noticed its not in Lionel
the locomotive looks strong, also classic and very pretty.
Bring on the big boy just released by MTH HO James! IT LOOKS A BEAST!!
I've been searching for this little locomotive for ages, excellent review man :) keep up the good work
Understand T1 trusts efforts to built one from scratch. Just hope they modify it in such a way as to overcome the flaws in the original design. I have seen on other sites on public media stating this locos top speed is 156 MPH. Would love to know where this figure came from. Nice model tho
They are, dont worry about the issues, they are being addressed.
Another AWSOME review James! Keep up the good videos, I love watching them.
Great loco. but the smoke is always the best feature because everbody has sound nowadays but not smoke. Worthless without smoke and James was not talking about the smoke very much. What a great MFR!
What radius of curves can this locomotive handle James???
It really annoys me that with Paragon 3 BLI has completely abandoned a short whistle blast
Still BLI hasn't learned to paint the ends of the driver axles. Nasty siderods too.
180 rolling stock.. wow... impressive
And I was just seeing if you had a review of this the other day. Dont know if i can get back into the hobby though.
Marcel Dekerpel just do it little by little if you have to. Don’t have to drop a bunch of money even tho we want to haha Some track here and there some rolling stock now and then it adds up fast 👍🏼
Just picked mine up. the AS Delivered 5538
Nice review James, man that locomotive is huge it is about as large as my challenger.😉
Great job again James, keep up the the great reviews, have a good night.😊❤️🌙👍🏻👍🏻
Just got one for Christmas.
I wish broadway limited would work on some of the other non-brass steam locomotives rather than remaking all their old paragon 2 locos. Would to see those early challengers.
Do the marker lights come on?
12:18 Wouldn't it be more like eight chuffs is prototypical. Not to nit pick but it's pretty obvious from old film that had sound. I really do enjoy your vids
Please release the PRR S1!
I love these engiens, it's that the one attempted on the club layout found the tracks laid for 6 axle diesels too stiff, so I'd have no use for this.
The 2nd and 3rd drivers are blind ( NO flanges ) but are also elevated and do NOT come in contact with the rails
I have 14 inch spur sidings that this monster ( ALL 5 THAT I HAVE ) goes through
My main line is around min of 45 inch ...
It handles anything you throw at it
GET UM !!!!! YOU'LL LOVE UM
Hi
Do you know what curves that needs to run
That is one awesome locomotive! Let's hope BLI do the NKP 2-8-4 Berkshire as Walthers have made it abundantly clear the will not be doing another run of theirs. Instead they want people to buy the Bachmann one which is inferior to theirs.
@Stuart Aaron Thanks for the info. Is that in HO?
@Stuart Aaron Thanks for the info yet again, I'll have to look on the website and see which one I will have. Thanks once again.
I wish I could afford all these great models you showcase
BLI produces fantastic locomotives, but i wonder why the PRR T1 has some flangeless drive wheels, great review by the way.
Thomas Avens Jr. Main reason for that is to take a tighter radius.
WONDERFUL CUTE MODEL !! WELL DONE
I really hope broadway limited makes frisco 1522
The disadvantage is, unlike their awesome die-cast work Big boy and Challenger, PRR T-1 is ABS body.
Hope this gets released in N scale!!

Is this HO or N? I can’t find a single note that tells me, and for the life of me, I have no visual reference for scale.
Awesome video !🚂jlwii2000 😀😎👍
This is in Ho scale, right?
Thunderturbine88. That certainly is HO scale by BLI. I don't think they make any other scale, at least I have never heard of any.
@@michaelgmoore5708 I'll be looking to buy this locomotive in the near future for sure
Do you know if the N scale model has smoke?
Can this locomotive handle 18 radius curves??
T1 trust ftw
that is one impressive engine wow
Great review!
muy buen video abrazo grande
Broadway Limited did a good job with this locomotive model. The locomotive compares reasonably well with the Boo Rim brass model, recently released, which costs $3500 dollars.
Really Really, that much?
Finally done good content
Wear gloves when you take out the loco from the box and please don't push it on the track. It has incredible low speed and excellent detail, well done Broadway.
Is this monster made of brass or die cast alum?
What radius is the minimum
I wish they would have released one with number 5550
Probably when it is closer to completion, they will do a model of 5550.
i got mine at train world very good prices
Where are the coaches?
'Smooth as buttah' 😅
Another great !!!
he shuld do more mth trains
It’s 5548, not 5549 as you stated.
Have you ever thought of doing giveaways maybe like ones you don’t like anymore or don’t use? Just a suggestion, Have a nice day!
How much is it
The only thing I have problem with this, it sits too close to the rail
It pains me to see that huge gap between the tender and the locomotive.
Stein, You can run it on tighter curves that way I guess. It looked ok to me. I am not a rivit counter and like toy trains just as much.
👍👍👍
its 5548 lol
It's beautiful boss I love you so much
Nice
front coupler was low and rear was high. "dead on" was a bit of an overstatement
I'm standing about 3 feet away and at an angle from the coupler with the camera. That's why I put the camera dead even so you can see for yourself if I'm off in my guesstimate.
Ethan Slape, It looks fine to me but then again I am not a rivit counter.
@@michaelgmoore5708 if you have grades on a layout tis would bother you. I'm no rivet counter
Traction tires, shame it didn’t have anything like that irl, could’ve used em
She is beautiful
Brass train quality.
It is Eric's review. Why do the writers keep referring to him as James? Why doesn't he ever tell us that it is HO guage? Beautiful model.
Another PRR locomotive, Like we don’t have enough already!
Well....it was a major NY to Chicago railroad. Meanwhile....you dumped rocks into Gitchagumee.
Greetings..from Hancock, MI.
Mark Williams well GN was major and so was NP and soo line but you don’t see models of those and also missabe was a major railroad and one of the most vital railroads to the country
Why in God's name did you spend your $ on a toy when you could have donated the $ to the T-1 4-4-4-4 group that is building a real one at scale 1:1.
