Yeah not too shabby eh? Was gonna try to scoop up another kato GP35 but it sold too quick, still looking for a good deal. But yeah if Bowser is finally releasing their script sd40's then id definitely opt for a few, saves me a project lol There really was no difference, gonna try looking at the trucks next, could be bad gears or something???
Haha thanks dude! Can't believe it's been four months since I last uploaded! But I have really been putting my head down and just grinding away at work, trying to get caught up on everything, before Christmas. Unfortunately I cancelled my empress orders, but if I can still swing one, I'll hit up the OVR, they seem to have some great pricing even with shipping out west here, I need to get my hands on the new rapido 40' box cars too... Bowser RS3 should be here next month?
Oh really? Interesting. I haven't heard anything from Mr. Arsenault in regards to my RS3, he is not happy with me though... But yeah, we'll see how things go for me, gotta make sure I can still afford everyday life first before dropping some cash on a Hudson 😅
Why would you swap an open frame for another open frame? The object of re-motoring is to use a can motor for better performance. Cheers from eastern TN
If you can find me a can motor that drops in, I'm all for it! Until then, I'll try a few things that I know 'work', even if they don't, it's all part of this wonderful hobby we're in haha
It very well could be, I have not had any time to look into it, but I'll for sure start cutting traction motors out and see what happens 👌 that's usually what the shops tell us to do 😜
They are very old (now) and very big compared to the sugar cube speakers we use now haha but they are Railmaster Hobbies DSM-8, they fit perfectly inside the Kato shells, I used them any chance I could! I went and checked their website too, I can't believe how long it took for Bowser to figure these out, I remember I had pre orders in, must have been 4+ years ago! I also saw they have BLI script GP35's...oh boy lol
Some nice additions to the collection, I could not tell the difference in the two motors , have great day

Hope to see you unbox empress soon.

@@MAYNE_line both the steam and rs units are in. Same with the box cars. There is limited amounts on the steam so act fast.
Don’t want you to miss out

Maybe its the bogie gears that are noisy?
