Great video, athearn did a great job in giving them a faded weather paint scheme
I agree!
I look forward every weekend for your updates. Thanks for sharing Darryl
My pleasure!
I just saw ex CNW 6706 leading in Midland TX on Friday!
Cool.
Hi Daryl,
Those patched locos really add another dimension 🙂
Yes they do
Cant go wrong with a new loco on the ray road. Especially a old SP.
So true
Love the SP loco, actually both, they look amazing thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching!
Those 2 patched locos looking great, will look even better once weathered abit I'm sure.
So true
If you have ever heard of the CNW twins they are 2 dash 9s that survived unpatched and unpainted thru December 2017. One is 8701 i dont remember the other number.
Yep, they are both repainted now.
@EvanstonSub those would be good unit for your layout as rare power. Scaletrains plans to make those units in a future dash 9 run.
HI Daryl looks good i like thanks for sharing.😊😊👍👍
You are so welcome
Some awesome looking new models! Gotta love patch jobs! Can’t wait to see how that CNW unit turns out.
Same here!
Daryl - love the reviews. I too love the faded flat look on the ex SP loco. I actually have the Athearn Roundhouse version they did several years ago and it too had that flat finish. Funnily enough, also picked up a CNW loco as well and got it patched - nice splash of color to break up the armor yellow and harbor mist grey.
Always wondered how you did your speed matching - thanks for including that.
Keep up the great work!!
Similar aspirations! UP all the way!
Sono veramente belli questi locomotori hanno fatto un bel salto di qualità 😊😊
Yes
hello Daryl & it's is Randy and i like yours video is cool & Thanks Daryl & Friends Randy
Thanks Randy
Nice Locomotives Daryl!!!
I used to pass by the ex SP line
that UP took over on my way
down to Laredo Texas, back in
2015 Corsicana Texas received 19 inches of rain washing out the roadbed on that line causing a derailment
that left both UP units on their
side, that was a sight for sure,
that line parallels 31 out of
Corsicana, I think at one time
it was the SSW from Texas to
Missouri if I'm not mistaken!!!!
There is a cool diamond there
too that crosses BNSF!!!!
SSW also known as the Cotton Belt
@@EvanstonSub Yes, that was SPs
access to Missouri thru Corsicana,
Trinity and beyond, Corsicana TX is
an excellent place for railfanning!!!!
I love the southern pacific and cnw unit you got Daryl I am working my roads in my area I kind of been busy working doing photos and watching a lot dvds on trains I am model or plan on doing 😊
That's cool
@@EvanstonSub yeah it's good plan for me Daryl but overall working cars getting them wheels them so run good
Good Morning Daryl ( Monday .9.30am from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺👍) remember to tune live today😆😆👍
Nice city. I was there in 2018. Is it easy to get US model trains there?
Sounds good Russell. I really appreciate the viewers from down under.
Yes it is there is a few stores that sell them
Another great show Daryl! It's always fun to see what you've been up to this week.
I'm a diehard SP fan, so in my world the SP took over the UP. So I've got 3 UP locos that are going to be patched to SP. Just to be different. Besides, I really like the modeling choices when weathering SP equipment - go light, go dirty, anything in between - it works. Nothing wrong with clean, mind you! But is there another RR that had the likes of "SP Grime"?
Highball the Rollby -
Ghost of the SP
When I went train watching in the 80s in TX SP units were always extremely dirty.
I want to say I've seen video of the UP 6718 in CNW colors as late as early 2018, so I would say it got repaint that year. So about a year earlier then Big Boy's first run.
I'm good with that!
A very prototypical look as S.P. weathered with time. Typical U.P. care, passed by a U.P. yard once, and thought there was CSX unit there. Turned out to be a U.P. unit, so dirty it was gray looking.
SP was even worse before they became a part of the UP.
Model railroad time frame "elastic license." Lots of locomotives change up operating sessions, more realism.
So true!
Are you using tsunami 2 decoders from Athearn together with the ESU Loksound 5 from ScaleTrains or do you change one of them?
I use them together. I migh someday change them all over to ESU.
Get a Big Boy but be sure to save one for me😂
I'll try to do both!
What Kadees are you using for your ScaleTrains and Athearn locos?
148s
Athearn with be releasing patched cnw dash-9s if you would rather do that. (I'm guessing they still ran dash-9s in 2015)
Do you know when they will arrive?
@@EvanstonSubno, stoll can't find when they will release them. But it should be soon.
Hi Daryl. Were you saying "Patching" or "Matching"? and what do they mean?
Chris Walsall UK
Patching refers to a new owner temporarily renumbering/lettering of a loco recently purchased from the former railroad. Matching refers to speed matching the model locos so that they will operate smoothly together without bucking back and forth.
Perfect reply, thank you
How many is too many? Never too much😊
Agree
@@EvanstonSub Too many is when you become 80 years old (like me) and wonder what will happen to all this stuff. LOL
Sorry new to this hat is a patched loco
Yes
