Custom NS Locomotive Roster Update - Modern HO Layout 2020
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 сен 2020
- Our locomotive fleet is constantly evolving and being updated. Check out what's new in our roster, as well as a detailed look at every locomotive. We will cover all the modifications, customizations, details, as well as DCC & Sound features in each locomotive. Scroll down to "video navigation" to As always, thanks for watching!
Regarding the custom sounds, I am excited to say that the first locomotive will be new ScaleTrains ES44AC file, which will feature multiple custom horns/bells/air compressors/and more - all accurate to the prototype. You can get them by pre-ordering your engine exclusively through lombard hobbies and adding the custom sound file option ($24.99), which be installed by the shop technician before shipping to you! I am also working on other custom sound files for the SD40-2, Dash 9, SD45 (Already available!), Tier 4, and SD70Ace. What else would y'all like to see?

Thanks for watching!

Josh: It's pretty much a stock locomotive, i just replaced the headlights, number boards, ditch lights, computer screens, opened the cab windows and the nose door, added some decals, did a little light weathering, and added custom sound files.
Me: Am I hallucinating?
wehearttrains lol
Not at all not all.
😶😬
O.K., So even I had to laugh at my son. After all the hours I have seen him pour into each of these projects, the attention to detail, the truly genuine enjoyment he gets from customizing each locomotive to make them all look so prototypical, to call them "stock" made me chuckle too. To me, it is always exciting to see a "stock" engine transformed into an amazing representation of the "real" thing! So, I guess I am lucky to have all these "stock" locomotives to pull trains around the tracks downstairs! 😉🥴
@@tomclark4654 and he does such an amazing job at modifying these "stock" locomotives!
@@tomclark4654Hi my names Elijah, and Im 15. I model CN in chicago. I was wondering, Is there a way that I can make an appointment to come visit the layout? Or even have some of my models custom detailed, with custom sound files and such, and if so maybe a quote?
Thumbed up of course! Have a nice Thursday! 👌
Congratulations on your entrance into medschool. Best wishes for you in that worthy pursuit. Thanks for the look and listen today.
Thanks Ron!! Appreciate the comment and kind words. Hope youre doing well! - Josh
I graduated from Medical in 1982. Still interested in G scale trains.
I counted at least $11k worth of engines in the first shot. That’s insane, but this setup is amazing. If I didn’t get into cars I would definitely build a nice layout. Keep it going!
I love all of your Ho locomotives and the sounds are sweet thank you NS modeler for showing us your video!
All of these locomotives next to each other are just so awesome! Spectacular like always, added to the watch later playlist so I don’t forget to watch your great videos!
Never had any interest in model trains till this Covid summer in London while recovering from genetic, not lifestyle, based heart attack in April (all the best for med school!). No idea how the algorithms brought your fascinating videos up in my RUclips list. But this 65-year old Englishman a very long summer job in a holiday camp outside Hendersonville, NC, and got to Ashville a few times to watch bands, eg Greg Allman. Saw and heard a lot of trains - so huge compared to UK. Always tooting and dinging as they crept along town streets (never have that here). No passenger trains. And the rails were always crooked so the slow moving engines straightened them out as they went. Scenery of Blue Ridge Mountain region is just as I remember and my cine film shows. Did a lot if swimming in lakes. All sun first half of that summer, then non-stop rain. We drank a lot of beer (very weak and tasteless compared to European beer) and Boons Farm fruit wine. Now my cousin sells all his hops to the US for your growing craft beer industry. Also recall Biltmore milk and amused to see Biltmore on some of your videos. Long time ago and happy times.
Always interesting to see what non-American railfans think of this country's trains. Cheers.
Thanks for watching and your memories. We appreciate your input and interest.
Sincerely, Josh and Tom
Thanks Stephen! We are very familiar the the area. Hope all is well in the UK! - Josh
You have done an amazing job with these locomotives, and your layout as well! Very realistic. I enjoy watching very much.
Really like the custom horns on these models. The custom work is very good too. Your a real model craftsman
Such great work! Thanks Josh! I like that you have to have different horns for all of them! They're all purdy great! So glad you finally got into Medical School! Blessings on that!
Congrats on med school!!!!!!! Love these videos, you talking about the locomotives is so wholesome! Sending good vibes from NY!
What a great rundown! Thank you for doing that. Really provides some great background for watching your operating sessions.
Oh, and congratulations on medical school!
We love you man....You've saved my sanity countless times and watching pulls me back when im slipping into depression,....so, with that you can see it helps in many ways...Thanx for everything and congrats on medical school.....wish you great success
Love those inside details on that dash 9, keep up the great work!
Thanks, we will!
Some of if not the finest work I’ve ever seen wow !!! Very very impressive great great craftsmanship
, just beautiful. Man , you really are talented.
Love those yard scenes you do. And the older GPs , SD 40-2 s blow my mind. Great modeling.
Your attention to detail blows my mind
Love the custom horns!
And really like the heritage units!
And congrats on Medical School👏
Yea good luck in school! I've been out for a few years but it's awesome you have a goal your working towards. Your channel has been a huge inspiration as I've been getting back into the hobby! Thanks!
Your welcome!!!
Josh and Tom
This is why I’m subscribed I absolutely love this channel. Keep up the good work👍
Thanks Ben! For subscribing and the kind comment. - Josh
Holy smoke that's a roster. You've got some great sounds going on 👍
Thanks Mark!
Awesome stuff! I became a railfan near Sacramento in 1999 and then got stationed east of St. Louis from 2000-2004. The NS line ran right past my workplace at Scott AFB, IL and I instantly became enamored with the Norfolk Southern. I railfanned that line the 52 months I lived there and just fell in love with their eclectic roster. Horsehead logo came along and I got some of the first photos of the 9749 at New Baden while it was waiting for an eastbound. By then I was familiar with some of the crews and I got a nice look in the cab of 9749 that day...one of many cab visits over the years. Once I moved back to Arizona in 2004 I began railfanning the BNSF Phoenix Sub as it was only a mile away. Happily there was no shortage of NS power on the BNSF over the next few years so my appetite for ponies was regularly fulfilled. Fast-forward to July 2012 and I just had to make the trip to Spencer, NC museum for the NS Heritage Units Family Portrait event. Phoenix is hot but I'd not experienced heat AND humidity like I did in NC during that trip. I even took the opportunity to go up in a Cessna that afternoon and do some aerial photography of the museum and Spencer itself.
I really miss seeing and hearing the NS on a regular basis. Videos like yours help fill some of that vacancy. Thanks for this great vid and good luck in med school!
I love listening to your videos while working on my own models
Greetings from BC! Love the BCOL loco. Congrats on med school and such a lovely roster
Nice video Josh! Thanks for sharing!
Great job Josh. Congrats on medical school. I have always enjoyed all of your videos. Go NS. Great collection of locos. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Robert!
First custom horn sounds I've come across that are actually smooth and impressive.
Been subbed since 2014, I am very impressed on the work youve done over the years! I love those custom sounds youve added and also the custom models done so sharp.
Thanks! Tom and Josh!
Thanks for watching and subscribing! Really means a lot :) - Josh
Congratulations on your excellent accomplishment of entering med school! Your perseverance sets a fine example for others. Thanks for continuing your modeling. Always enjoyable! God Bless!
Thank you so much! Really appreciate the kind words. - Josh
My goodness! You never fail to impress!
Incredible roster josh, I have recently been binging all of your videos with my dad and you have been an inspiration to restart construction on our layout! Great work keep it up.
Working with Josh all these years have been one of the highlights of our father/son relationship. We would encourage anyone to share time together in this manner. Best of times and joy together!
Tom and Josh
Thank you!
It's just mind blowing, the detail, and time to set it up. I would love to see a setup like this.
Awesome! This is a really cool layout and you're a really good modeler! The trains look and sound real!
Thanks a million!!!
Josh and Tom
very very impressive roster. your detailing and modifications are second to none.
Thanks! Josh and Tom!
Just a correction at 9:10, BN rostered 3 of them. Two are still intact (although in a very poor shape) at GEs Erie plant.
Very nice video, cool to get to hear all of the sounds in these models!
This was 39 minutes really well spent. That is some beautiful work you and your dad do. Best of luck to you in Med School. I'm sure you'll make a fine Doctor.
Thanks for the complimentary words. He will be a fine doctor!
Tom (and Josh)
kudos man, high respect for you going into med school, good luck and best wishes, just dont forget your locos need their love too
Dad will keep the love flowing!
Tom
idk why but watching these HO Train videos are satisfying
Hey Josh just wanted to say as a fellow Southern Railway guy myself you have a great collection of locomotives! 😎
Awsome job at this . You inspire me to make my small collection bigger and do to an good jab at projects related to model railroads . Overall you are my favourite model railroader
Stay inspired !!! And I'll let Josh know!
Tom
Impressive roster of engines. Always enjoy your videos. Good luck in medical school.
Wow that sounds great. Good luck in school. May the force be with you.
Thanks! haha
Awesome work! Your work is so realistic!
Thanks for your thoughts and kind words!
Josh and Tom

Perseverance has its rewards! You'll do great there!
Super awesome, love the in depth look 👍👍
Thanks! Josh and Tom
So god damn realistic
EXCELLENT WORK DUDE

Search for la mesa railroad club.. its awesome
Thanks for the compliment!
Tom and Josh
That means a lot. Thank you!!
NSmodeler24 Yeah no problem!
Saw the thumbnail and thought that it was real! -Great work :D
Congrats on med school, Josh! My grandfather is actually a retired cardiovascular surgeon, and he always would talk about how hard it was to get into med school! (of course, it was harder for him because he started college at 16 years old.) but overall, congrats dude!
Great video I’ve always wondered about the few Amtrak loco’s you have. Also congrats on med school btw!
Congrats on med school mate, I hope you have a solid class and a great time. Solid that you have a fun hobby going into it. Take care and all the best.
Appreciate it! :) Josh
Great video! Great heritage units and engines!
Congratulations man i wish you the best in med school and ik you will do greet and keep up the great content also i love you vids sm
Beautiful fleet ! Love all the extra features you add . I am modeling Montana Rail Link in O Gauge. Love all your mountain scenery . Your work is very very well done so thanks for sharing .
You most welcome!!!
Josh and Tom
Nothing better than mountain railroading. Always loved the MRL. Thanks! - Josh
Very cool collection Josh!
Great video, and congrats on getting into Med School! Best of luck with your future endeavors!
Thank you!!
the 2 940-C models were cool - the 2nd one had an awesome horn!
U are the best!
Love your layout
Always love the content!
Thanks Mitch!
Hello . Your virtual screw is so good . Thanks for your time
**ALSO CONGRATS ON GETTING INTO MED SCHOOL** Dude my favorite Train will always be the Standard Cab Dash-9 like they look so damn cool. Plus that odd c40? Not the cw40-8 but the one that has a standard cab, but the cab is in the layout of having the engineers seat looking down the long hood. But that one is super cool too.
Very very cool layout and very detailed and I like it
Good morning, it is impressive, the details, I am very happy to see these videos and many more videos of you, because I am doing my HO Scale train table, always remembering the talkes is very important. 👍🤗 Thanks ..... Luis Acosta..............
Nice job on the ac44c6m, I get a ton of them up where I live. Ac44c6m’s and sd60e’s are regular power on NS’s Sunbury line (former d&h Susquehanna division).
Awesome work man. The cab computers are something I would like to do.
Excellent video! Congrats on med school! You’re a master modeler and your videos partially inspired me to switch from O to HO scale! BTW love the horn on 8099. I’m getting the PRR & CR heritage units when ST makes them since I’m from Pittsburgh PA & a PRR fanboy.
Best of luck and lots of enjoyment!
Josh and Tom
Thank you Phillip!
Its always nice to have a large HO scale locomotive roster. I have many to use including twelve Bowser CP SD-40-2 's.
Wow! beautiful black trains NS...... very nice.... thanks for sharing.
Your welcome!!!
Josh and Tom
Good luck in medical school, i love your models and those GE compresor sounds, awesome greatings from México :)
Gracias !!!
Thank you! I recorded that right off of a real Dash 9 with my iPhone. haha Greetings from SC!
Extremely impressive modeling. I’m jealous of this roster
Thanks!
Awesome models and layout! Those switchers that you have, the NS is an SW1500, their ex RDG 1001's were in the 2100 series. They had a round cab roof, and drip strips on the cab roof over the side windows. The CR switcher looks like an SW1200. Regardless, your videos are always interesting to watch!
Wow. You have so much to be proud of. Congrats on Medical School. Great video.
Awesome collection
AWESOME GOOD VIDEO THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS WITH ME GOOD LUCK WITH THE SCHOOL AND YOUR STUDIES ENJOY YOUR TIME AT SCHOOL.
That’s a nice collection!
Awesome locomotive roster Josh! Congrats on getting into Medical school.
I know this is late...but congratulations on med school and hope it is going well. Great videos of your very impressive modeling skills and realistic models.
WOW! AWESOME COLLECTION!
THANKS! JOSH AND TOM !!?
!!! (not !!?)
Omg! You’re becoming a doctor?! Congrats man! I’m very happy for you!
Thank you!!
Josh
Super neat to see a Ho model of a b32, I believe bn owned a few b32’s and a few of the ns b32’s were sold to gecx and now operate on the Georgia central I’ve been able to see those units a lot.
9:13 fun fact NS is not the only railroad that rosters/rostered the 8-32B! Burlington northern had 3 of the units for a short time (then they returned them back to GE). And amtrak rosters them with the 8-32BWH. Youve got an amazing roster and i cant wait for more videos👍
Interesting. I never knew... Thanks for sharing! - Josh
josh good luck with med school, best wishes from suffolk uk,have a small ns intermodel yard layout based on rutherford yard pa.keeps me busy in my retirement,take care.
Loved the video as always...yay Amtrak
Nice work brother. I think i saw a video on how you did the lit dash. That was really awesome.
Good luck at medical school! You will do great! Great videos with lots of effort into them!
Lombard is in my top 5 online hobby shops that I deal with. They are competitive in pricing for sure. I have never had a issue with any orders as of yet. 👍
That is our experience!
Lambast hobbies is a great shop. About an hr from me coming from Milwaukee but I’ve been there twice.
Josh, as a gentleman who took the MCAT I know exactly how hard it is! Congratulations man! Love the look at the diesels, but no love to the steam, come on man! Haha you probably don't remember me but I met you at the Asheville show a while back! I was the stuttering guy that kept asking about the scaleTrains and how you like them. Good luck on college and trust me, rest when you can and make sure to take "off time" so you don't overwhelm yourself!
The MCAT is no east task. Congrats to you as well for taking on such a challenge. Thank you! - Josh

I left the medical field and never pursued being a pediatrician. I interned / shadowed one summer and just got to connected with the kids. My physician friends warned me not to do it. Congratulations though! You decided which specialization you may do?
Good luck in School Josh, or should
we say Dr. Josh!! This layout will give you a place to unwind from
School in the coming years!!👍👍👍
Haha thank you Scott! Definitely a relaxing thing to come home to. Appreciate it! - Josh
Nice Units Josh, Like the UP Units. I'm a UP fan. Great video. Bob
You have a great eye! Thanks for always supporting and encouraging Josh!
Tom
He's seem like a good kid Tom, you did a great job with him.
OUTSTANDING. ! ! !
My dad went to med school, and congratulations on making it!
I wish I had a roster like yours Great work
I love the ET44AC horn and it has Graham White E-Bell installed.
I loved that custom 3rd gen K5LA horn man! Haha I need that for a few of my KCS locomotives! Great video as always! And best of luck with Med school
This is a beautiful fleet
Thanks Jeffrey!
Great details inside the cab! Most of the items on the window dash are actually crewpacks and not trash. Crewpacks are plastic sleeves that contain paper towels, handwipes and garbage bags for the crews. Often the crews just toss the packs onto the window dashes.
Thanks for the information. We always have something new to learn.
Tom
Unbelievable! And you are a med student. Where do you get the time. Been there. Keep it up. This hobby will keep you sane! You be surprised how many patient will speak to you when they know you are a train person.
Congrats on getting into med school, Josh. Great roster you have.
Thank you! Really appreciate it!
Josh
Those models are all cool
