Impressive model James, those cattle cars sounded really good. The model looked really good, outstanding detail on it. Cant wait to see what else comes and hope to see you do a review of the bli greenbrier when it comes out.
you all probably dont care but does any of you know a tool to get back into an instagram account?
I stupidly forgot my login password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me
@Giovanni Jerome instablaster :)
@Adam Harlan Thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Adam Harlan it worked and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much, you really help me out!
@Giovanni Jerome Glad I could help =)
Thats locomotive is a beast even in H.O. Scale
Wow, BLI is my favorite. Love the Smoke and great sound! That engine is loaded in every way.
I would just like to say, I love your videos and they inspired me to do my own reviews of my trains. Thank you very much.
Nice loco. Definitely sounds better with the surround sound. Prototypical experience with it. Good stuff.
And this whole channel best collection of ho scale on RUclips best reviews I’ve seen
Great video!! Yikes what a long wheelbase! What size are your radii? Oh and hey, it was nice seeing you on “What’s Neat”! It’s great to see model railroaders of all ages all sharing ideas, techniques and model reviews!
These locomotives are excellent in every way except for the choice of sound file for the whistle. The hybrid TTT-6 2-10-2 for the UP, that BLI released about nine years ago, had a QSI decoder that did have the correct whistle. I sent BLI a note telling them, about a year prior to their release of the first version of the 4-12-2 three years ago, that their earlier TTT-6 had the correct whistle, and I received an acknowledgement. Very regrettably, the BLI Paragon decoder does not have the correct whistle.
What type of whistle did the UP 2-10-2 & 4-12-2 have?
Nice lookin loco, really beautiful model. Too bad they are reusing a lot of their sounds like the whistle and idol sounds from the big boy.
Sadly these babies struggled on hills.. but they're so beautiful.
Puts out a lot of smoke! I like it
Hey that's the exact train that my Great great grandfather drove before he died
I think the later 4 12 2s used the same tender as the Big Boys and Challengers.
I want one of those but can't afford one. Very nice loco.
Weird glitch at 8:40
it was a test to see if you were watching closely ;)
That was alien radio wave interference!
jlwii2000 i saw it
It was censored
Very nice locomotive. I purchased my first BLI locomotive about ten years ago. It had missing parts and a call to BLI and I had them in my mail box two days later. The quality and outstanding customer support sold me on BLI. I just purchased my fourth one, a USRA Heavy Mikado. It also is a very good runner, great detail, and cab figures but no "foot plate" between the cab and tender. I thought it may be a missing part, but no. There is none shown in the parts diagrams for this locomotive or a place for it to attach. Very disappointed as it leaves a big gap between the locomotive and the tender. Reminds me of the toy trains I had as a kid back in the 40's/50's. All four of the BLI locomotives I have are really good runners and strong.
I've watched 4 videos of this train and none show the train actually running? Why? It looks great but let's see it at full speed.
A parrarel line will never touch each other in a plane universe, and said parrarel line is named, freight specialised locomotive, and the other is running at high speed.
Great video as always
Hahahahaha! The sounds of farm animals in those stock cars though! But what's up with the S-2 barber roller bearing trucks on the cattle car?
OK, Now we are talking! Does this come with the Paragon 3 that outputs to the rolling thunder or do you need to replace or add something to the engine?
For some reason they didn't synchronize the exhaust with the cylinders on this one. The chuffing is way too fast for the movement.
Three cylinders = 6 beats per revolution. No ifs or buts.
Do these engines have a name i.e Challenger Mallet?
9:00 big boy whistle?
You should do a review of the Pennsylvania Railroad decapod
Just curious...is this the ultimate high end...or does it get better/more expensive?
Those are air pumps (2) on the front of the smoke box. . .
I want to collect all of the light & heavy Mikado from BLI
i have a broadway limited heavy mikado HO scale, i have not had a layout in years thinking about building one soon.
Why didn't you ghet no. 9000 thats the famous one, and its the soal surviver of the up 4-12-2
Are the bringing out a bald face version? I thought the 3 cylinders would have more distinctive sound?
bmw325iscoupe James mentions that to get the third cylinder sounds, you have to change CVs. I guess he didn't do that for the video. it would also be interesting to note if the smoke chuffs also go to 6 per wheel rev, instead of the nominal 4
hola, he visto la mayoria de tus videos muy explicativos y muy bien construidos con detalles ecepcionales, queria consultarte si existe alguna forma o medio de comunicacion directa para ver si puedes mostrarme un tender abierto para ver un decoder paragon 3 como van los cables soy de Chile atento a tu respuesta saludos Raul P. gracias.
Hola Jlwill2000, aun no me has respondido mi consulta, debo hacerloen ingles?
Cool Beans!
These are so nice.
Excellent Quality, Is There Any Brand That Is Better ?
James, the smoke unit went out on my Paragon 2 4-12-2, what ya think,,,, good enough excuse to get this one?😎😎😎 lol
heck yes!
Can you run Broadway limited brand of trains and mth brand within a layout
Are these available in Australia. If not how do I contact Paragon models to order. .?
Paragon models? That’s not the company the company is Broadway limited imports
Whats the cheapest g scale track u can get what websites?
Its a shame BLI didn't bother to get the three cylinder sound correct - 6 chuffs per wheel revolution instead of eight!
Strange that you wouldn't mention the third cylinder detail.
No fireman or engineer figures in the new broadways?? $700 loco but can't put a $2 figure in it? Very poor executive decision. Nice looking and running loco though
trainsri Chinese min wage went up?
Why no mention of the dual air pumps on the smoke box face?
And the blind drivers also.
forgot, sorry.
sure sign of our years of existence. Keep up the good work !
Show us how it pivots and how the lock pin works. Then test / document how it performs on various radii. There's not one video of these anywhere on YT that illustrates this, and when you go to a local shop to see one, they're all in sealed boxes and they won't take one out...I don't care about the sound effects or details, it's how it RUNS that counts!
WHOOO!!!
What is the minimum curve radius for it?
22
Oh that’s a shame
I guess instead of 18” I’ll use 22”
@@jlwii2000 Thanks James, I am wanting to get this model but was worried about the curve radius mine is over 30. I am relieved now. This monster was just incredible. Great review.
THIS IS A RELLY BIG LOCO
Now get a 4-14-4 AA20
Because i have one and its awesome
Where can I find one of these I can't find them anywhere😢
eBay is where most trains like these are at
THAT LOCO GOT NO BUSINESS GOING DOWN SALUDA OR DONNER BEIN' THAT POWERFUL
i HAVe Never seEn a 12 drive wheel locomotive😂
I wonder if one of the 9000 class locomotives exists today?
Kieran Bricker number 9000 is preserved but it would need a new boiler completely to be restored to working order.
James the Void Knight Could UP buy it after they do work on 4014?
Kieran Bricker not sure, it would be nice but they are planning on overhauling 3985 after 4014 and getting 844 ready for this coming spring.
I’m sorry, a UP-4?
FOUR?
Is there something I’m missing?
Union Pacific version four. They were never called that though, were called the 9000's
@@jomama05 Unless you were a UP mechanical engineer who filled out the paperwork before and after one of these had a repair,small up to a complete rebuild.
This is a 9000 class
The area between the firebox and the rear truck looks ridiculous with the open area and the extremely VISIBLE spring assembly. For the money, I would expect better detail! The smokebox front looks crooked also ...and NO PEEPS?
these things are 500$
So could you
youre still coming in a little soft.... but otherwise great vid.
Jerky start, toyish....
It’s just an unarticulated challenger. ^mind blown*
Actually it's the other way around, as the first one was made a decade before the challenger
