    Excellent review! Honest review! The more I watch your reviews (even the older ones) the more impressed I am with your channel. I may have already purchased a variant of this model and it no doubt, is still in the box, as the model RR side of the bucket list has not happened yet. That being said, I probably would not get another one of these models since the weight and pulling power are not even close to what the prototypes pull and the sound and volume are on the verge of annoying, to my ears (which you point out as being a possibility). Just one example of why your channel is quite worthwhile... and the fact that you are a very pleasant person to listen to! As always, thanks for being there and thanks for your service!

    Nice job. No beating around the goofy bush. Really good on this one getting to the point. Was busy and only could listen to your narration on this one and was actually impressed! The planets or something must be aligned right. Keep it up!

  • @lionellance

  • @tylerhays7365
    That is really a great model to have on the layout. Can't wait to get one soon! I was going to note that the real life 1943 is actually a Tier 4 Credit SD70AH and was originally UP 9026 before being repainted into the "Spirit of the Union Pacific" paint scheme.

    Note: This model had been handled like crazy before it arrived to me, it had been shown at several train stores...thus the decal on the front is a bit rough. Models shipping out next week(including the model I have coming that I ordered from trainworld.com) will have crisp printing.

    I picked up the 1943 at the Great Midwest Train Show on Sunday April 8th and I got it from a vendor for $260. I was instantly hooked and I really love it!

    Hand rails although striving to be prototypical look very delicate . Decoration though looks superb , and sound is excellent . Nice model, enjoyed the review , thanks.
  • @OmegaDeus8467
