Hi Brian its called black beauty. Its used for sandblasting. you can find it at grainger and believe it or not amazon as well.

thanks Mike. There are four there Ive had 6 steam=m at one point.

Thank You I always try to change it up with something new.

thank you Jason. Ive learned alot from the experts who have given me great information.

Thank You, the GG1 is one of the most iconic engines in history.

Thanks Brian its the only tmcc engine I have but she is a beauty.

Hey sorry for the delay, honestly I use super gloss just because I like the look. You can use semi gloss or statin as well. Its all about preference.

I totally I agree I actually have the reefers on a train now, they are truley fantastic.

no im much more built than the body ever was lol

Glad you like it, I really enjoy mine alot. Real nice model of USRA mikado by MTH.

A ton of power and I wasnt sure how it was going to end up. But they did hit 120 mph without derailing. The loop they ran on was 0-80.

Thanks, i recently picked up the same paint scheme SD40 Chessie.

Unfortunately you cant regulate Lionel smoke volumn with DCS. You need Lionels remote for that.

Appreciate that bob. 👍🏻

Thanks I appreciate it, I try to make things easy to catch. All manufacturers always make it so difficult.

Thanks glad you liked it, the GE EVO's are great engines

Im using all four ports on the TIU since I have four mainlines. The two fixed channels you need to run command or protosounds two since they have fixed voltage. However the two variable channels you can bounce back to fixed or variable via the remote. Currently all four ports are running fixed.

@@BobsOGaugeTrains thank you 😊

yup no problem Vader, its black beauty coal slag. They use it for sandblasting in the commercial market.

Hi Johnny, as far as transformer power either a Lionel ZW or MTH Z4000 would be recommended. I would use 14 gauge wire since you are running a big loop. With roughly 200 ft of track I would would suggest minimum of 6 feeders . That would mean fresh power roughly every 35 feet. Stranded wire works best for our application. It sounds like your gonna have a fantastic setup. Is you have any other question you can always reach out. Let me know how you make out, your project sounds extremely interesting

@BobsOGaugeTrains thanks for replying and I will keep you updated with my progress on this project..

Thank you, Im working on a layout update. It will be out soon. Alot has been improved.

Big time Steelers fan. I was born in Johnstown Pa. Its like hour and 15 minutes from Pittsburgh.

They only place is thru MTH parts for the pilot. If that doesn't work I can suggest an MTH tech that could order it and repair it. Thanks for the feedback. Im planing a big video real soon; the entire layout has been re done and I think looks great with more detail.

thanks for watching, glad to hear you enjoyed it.

Thanks Guss, hope sall is well your way. Yes indeed, I need to get back there hopefully this summer.

I totally agree the Atlas reefers are the best freight car in the market. Thanks for checking them out.

looking forward to more trips this spring..

hey Mr Shades, unfortunately back in August my husky developed oral melanoma. Many trip to the hospital for treatment. Unfortunately January 2 he passed. Im still coming back. The trains are alive and well.

Thanks for watching, most trips we did 3 runbys with each one going faster. Absolutely if you were close you got cinders and a push back. Those were the days

sorry for the delay, they are 15 amp

15 amp auto fuses

Thanks Mr Shades. Keep up the great work.
