By far the best video ever The sounds my friend you brought that train to life
Thank you! When you find the entire consist with stationsounds diner it makes the train come to life!
Probs one of the best channels about model trains.
Thank you for the support!!🚂
Got the grayhound love it!
The 3977 looks amazing in the greyhound paint scheme!
I was late to buy too and had dealer send it back to Lionel to fix issues. Took over four months before I ever saw it. Great looking engine. I now have a grey and black one. Grey from prior issue. Guess I will have two Big Boys since Lionel is releasing another one next year. Probably will be the only thing I can buy as I look for a 3k retail price and smoke will not come out of every single location on the engine or tender (water effects). Lionel needs to make the bell move and the engineer’s arm move when he blows the whistle and empties my bank account!
I was very fortunate to communicate with East Side Trains and Bruk B when I purchased this. We were able to make a plan prior to me purchasing it. I am also looking forward to the new Big Boy next year! I will most likely put a preorder on the UP 4000!
Great video, professionally done. Lionel VL Challengers are awesome.
Thank you very much for the feedback!🚂
I had to watch this again do your self a favor and put head phones on it will blow you away
Thank you! This locomotive is absolutely incredible!!
Nice slo mo shot, will try that in my first video. Gary j
Thank you this was my first review on the channel!
I may get in touch with Mr. Banister about my challenger if she has the issues yours did. Mine is a 3985 as well. I also LOVE your 3rd rail daylight MT-4.
Bruh did an outstanding job on the 3985! Hope everything for yours works out! The MT4 is incredible! 3rd rail has made some amazing locomotives! Happy Railroading!!
@@will2926 mine runs flawlessly. The other day, I ran her on a 45 car scale steam era freight train for 6 hours straight. Never got more than lukewarm
That’s a large locomotive!
Yes it is! Its an awesome locomotive from Lionel!
When you un-synced the drivers, did you use a roller base or did you take it apart?
I have been trying to get an HO model of 3985 for a long time! But is so expensive though!
The UP 3985 is an absolutely amazing locomotive! I can’t wait for it to be restored!!
@@will2926 she is being worked on! I don’t know how long it’s gonna take to get her up and running again, but sooner than we know it her fire well once again, be lit!
So. What are the dimensions of your trainboard. Nice detailed video. What type of track is that? Atlas.. Did you add that led sign on the roof? About to do my first video, taking way long to do switches and parking tracks gary j
My layout right now is 12x8. I made this using 4x8 boards that I bolted together similar to Legos. The sign is a Miller Engineering Union Station Sign. They are excellent signs that add a lot of cool details to any layout. I used atlas track for the layout!
Do you need a specific controller for all the crew talking features?
Not necessarily however, if you use the Cab-2 remote you can unlock and use every function on the Legacy locomotives. You can use the Cab-1, Cab-1L and Bluetooth app too. The upcoming Cab-3 app will also be helpful.
Does the bell swing on this one like it does on the vision line big boy?
No, this model does not have the swinging bell feature. On the prototype air pressure is used to ring the automatic bell.
Where did you get it
I got this model from East Side Trains in WA.
