    Folks, I'm aware that the trailing wheel on NP locomotive is not moving all the time. I missed it during editing and there's nothing I can do about it now. That trailing axel probably needs some oil or something. It'll be ok. :) Also, excuse my stuffy voice as I had a cold while I was filming this.

      I also noticed the Santa Fe’s trailing wheels weren’t moving all the time at 5:12

      @UtahUPman 2 года назад +1

      I've had the same issue before. No biggie, a shot of lube and an adjustment solves it. ..or just run and break the thing in like you are doing. Impressive consist, and great idea shooting from all the new angles. I'm more of a tutorial guy, but I'd have to agree with one of your other commenters (my opinion) that this is definitely one of your top 5 best video reviews. Quality content Eric.

      I suspect it is the engine’s drawbar lifting the trailing truck. I rarely have this same visual perspective so I will be looking for the same issue with my engines in the future.

    • @danielkapp9468
      @danielkapp9468 2 года назад

      I think the weight on the trailing trucks is too light, I've seen that issue on a couple O-27 units I've owned in the past, it looks like they will roll fine if they are actually touching the rails. You may need to add additional weight on them for more prototypical operation.

    Just want you to know how big of an influence you have been on my train collection. I had all the old post war I wanted along with accessories. I have old Standard Gauge from the 1914-1940’s. Then I saw you channel and bought the Brute set for my Standard Gauge and many modern remote control sets from both Lionel and MTH. I’m currently completely out of room. Thank you so much for introduction to modern trains. I have the best of all worlds now 🙂

    My dad has three postwar aluminum passenger cars that were offered in a set by Lionel with the 2383 Santa Fe A-A F units, which I don’t have and have been searching model railroad conventions in the Atlanta area for over a decade with no luck. Do you happen to know of any Lionel 2383 Santa Fe A-A F units that are missing their rolling stock to pull?
