![[Kato USA Tech Corner] - Installing N scale lighting kits into Bi-levels and Superliners](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/PyU7oqyjXaM/mqdefault.jpg)
I started my whole layout with this set, lots of great running and memories
I'm glad you enjoyed!
@@BluDog35Yes, it's GE
The hose is between the cars are called MU couplers. It’s The cables that carry air for the brakes and electricity for the cars, Just like the pigtail on a semi truck.
FINALLY SOMEONE PRONOUNCED THE NAME RIGHT!!!!!!! I'M LIKING IT!!!
I have a Kato Amtrak Superliner set that I bought 8 years ago next month. I have added more track, more Superliner cars & a baggage car to my train set that I have put away, I will be setting it up the end of this month. In the future I plan on getting more Superliner cars so my train will be the Coast Starlight. I have a plan to have my layout in the future be of the Pacific Surfliner/Coast Starlight route from San Diego to San Luis Obispo,CA, my favorite Amtrak route.
Bludog35 the P42 is a General Electric Genesis Locomotive. I have a national Amtrak schedule, one of the last ones printed. The Downeaster Amtrak trains run between Boston North Station & Brunswick, ME. Amtrak’s Northeast Regionals run between Boston, New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore,Washington,DC,Richmond,Newport News, Norfolk & Roanoke,VA. The Acelas run between Boston & Washington,DC. I travel by Amtrak when I travel long distance & when I’m home in the San Diego area I ride the Pacific Surfliners between San Diego,Los Angeles & Oxnard,CA alternating my visits between Los Angeles & Oxnard,CA.
Just bought this set! Excited to finally get it in my hands. It's a gift for my son, but!!! I think he and I are gonna have fun with this
kato is brilliant. Yes it is expensive but you get what you pay for.
Thanks for pointing out the feeder clips
Same, the Downeaster goes from Portland Maine - Boston Massachusetts And it’s speed is normally 79 MPH At track speed. And the trains are usually powered by a GE P42DC Or a NPCU EMD F40PH
Pretty sure it can't be powered by an NPCU. But I get you.
BluDog35 yeah.
Awesome video man!!! I was on the fence you got me hooked.
I was able to get my hands on this before they sold out on Amazon! I can’t wait if will be here this Friday!! So exited this will be my first Model train set that I ever got. I want to make a small N scale layout
Nice review! I just ordered this set to get back into model railroading. It'll just go around the Christmas tree this year, but hopefully I'll build it into a small layout afterwards.
Awesome review! And I’m 6 years late!
how small are these in inches?
And i am also surprised that when the train went high speed that it didnt derail
Each car is about 4 inches long
James Mohler Thank you
Considering buying this set, BUT want to know if I would be stuck with just the three cars it comes with. Would like to add additional cars like 3 more sleepers and autoracks. What's the point of buying a set if you can't add to it. I'm assuming they would have to be Phase V or newer to couple up to the cars in this set.
They all have the same couplers. You could hook up a freight car to them. Or a steam engine. Normal type. No special couplers here.
I Still Think Running Bachmann On one Side The Lay Kato would Be Quite Classy.
I was wondering if you could help me please I have this same set up but the lights don't work in my locomotive thank you
BlueDog23 I'm getting this same set.. when you assembled the Track it shows there are 8 Section 4 for each corner I'm getting a Folding Leg table it measures 30' inches Wide X 72' inches Long the Same as you 4 X 6 sheet of Particle board... what I'm wondering would that 30' inches wide be sufficient for the Radius of the Curves.. hopefully it will be or I will have to get a board that will Accommodate the Width of the Radius.. Can pass on to me what the Width is ASAP Thanks.. AKR
akr3985fan I Don't think 30 inches will work. 4 foot by 6 foot is 48 inches by 72 inches. You may need a board to widen the table.
BluDog35 BlueDog35 I got my Set the same one as you got the Amtrak I got it up and Running on the Board I mentioned the 30 X 30 X96 and I'm using a Little bigger Curved Track the 13 3/4 - 45 its running fine but when I run the set in Clock Wise.! Direction) The Way I seen your's in your Video I had to switch my Controller to Reverse to run it Forward is there something you had to do to run it this way is that the Normal Direction..
akr3985fan
I probably switched the terminals on the connector.
+BluDog35 the manufacturer is general Electric
11:04 You are right it’s GEP42 Genesis.
I have that thunder valley starter set with Santa Fe the same one
My Understanding Kato And Bachman Can go hand and Hand?
Rail cars probably. Track, probably not
would you sell it if you stop playing with it? a friend game me a track but no train so id try buy it
Sorry bud. I'm keeping this. There's plenty of used trains to be had on ebay or at train shows.
I really like this set but I also like the super chief set (I think that's what it's called)
You are correct on the maufacuture
I've been HO for god knows how long...to bad this set aint due in the US (for it's new release) until January. All well, it's not like I got a pretty GS4, or anything, I need more freight if anything.
it is a shame that hornby dropped there clip togehter track, as it is a very smart idea. i really like the way kato have nailed the clip together track, clip together modular controllers (those controls are just lovely)
Man, you did a great job. Thanks!
I Have That Set + All Of The Cars Il Send U Link To Get The Set And The Passenger Cars
How hard would it be to make this set DCC?
It's just so tiny... Imagine how the chip would have looked...
Not very, you just need the right decoder.
Very well done....so u live northest from me....I'm in lower mid by pa in new york. I didnt care for that style loco....but after this super close look at it .....I'm kinda digging that loco!!!! I think I have 10" straights in ez track....but u said it ....Kato track all the way!!!! Nice job again!
This video is 5 years old bud. I actually moved to east Central Pennsylvania shortly after this video was filmed.
@@BluDog35 no doubt!!!??. How far away from Mansfield pa are u?
@@tadheath5856 101 miles according to Google.
do you know any apps that can control kato trains?
I do not. They aren't bluetooth as far as I know.
According to the box, this train actually stands to Amtrak Portland empire builder
if you add a coach baggage car to the consist, that is.
It is the empire builder. But one coach short
It is a GE "Genesis" or P42.
Really nice video! How much was the set and what website? Thanks!
I got this at a train show 3 years ago in Wilmington Massachusetts for around $170.00 I don't remember the exact price. No website.
BluDog35 Thank you for your quick response, this information was useful!
modeltrainstuff.com
Really love this website. Affordable prices on locomotives and Kato train sets
I know on trainworld.com you can get it for $180.00 it sells for $250.00 MSRP
You can find this (and more Amtrak) at katousa.com
Un set N Kato japones . Quiero uno
Hi bud, thanks for the video. Just got one of these sets myself. keep it up :-)
that's the train that was the train that I was about to get
The p42's are basically GE Genesis engines I believe (they are diesel electric)
Yes. These locomotives are made by General Electric. You can call them P 42s. I call them genesis.
The amtrak p42 is a diasel power engine
Hi
I wanted to ask how much did u pay 4 this
kato needs to make this trainset in ho scale soon
They do make the locomotives and cars in HO. They just don't package them together.
It is a Ge p42
I trains to and got the train that I was about to get
19:18 There's no tools to uncouple cars for these trains? As you well say magnetic uncouplers dont do the job on these ones.
nice! It's a GE Genisis
He already opened it the lounge car is in the sleeper cars spot
Where I can I buy one of these sets?
CrystalDragon Gaming But They Scam You And Send It Broken
can you please unbox and show the, GE ES44AC GEVO Mixed Freight Starter Set Union Pacific in n scale? that would be great!
I don't plan on getting that set. It is pretty expensive, and my layout isn't going to be based on the west coast.
DanEllisRacing35 Union Pacific runs on the west coast though.
mj0820
My layout ISN'T going to be based on the west coast.
DanEllisRacing35 wow I feel so stupid right now.
mj0820
It's all good bud. We all make mistakes.
Kind of wished on these sets.! KATO would do like they do when you Buy Individual pieces they have some writing on the Bottom of the Case and on sides so you know what is and less confusion, It it Nice they added Wording on the Individuals pieces.. Bluedog35 I expanded my set a little spent some money an added a Mainline Passing Set) I got Larger Curves as mentioned in my Previously post and some more Track got just enough room to add..
A Automatic 3 Color Signal that is if I can figure a way to get it to set flat on this board of mine the screws protruding from the signal sits it above the board, Trains go over in a Awkward way so I may have to Drill some holes and mill out the area for the Base of the Signal to set Flat.. Hopefully I can add it in..
Pass on if can what you added to Your Set.. Like to see Later AKA
I think it would be Awsome if you Assemble Bachman, Kato , Lifelike Power loc N Scale.
Awesome video Kato Amtrak sets are very nice
I agree. It is pretty cool. :)
Is this set dcc ready?
There is no decoder in the locomotive. But they do sell them. It’s a pain to install.
@@BluDog35 so en the end I should just buy all dcc ready locos for my layout? I’m in the process of building a dcc layout but didn’t know the locos in the Kato sets weren’t dcc
@@timothytaylor7181 this video is quite old. I’ve been out of the hobby for a long time. So I’m not really the best authority for this. I’d just research as much as possible. I believe newer Kato products are easier to add DCC. but this design is like 12 or so years old.
Downeaster goes to Boston North Station
Thx for sharing
Were do you get the set?
It may be discontinued by now considering this video is 5 years old. But a quick google search should do the trick.
Where did you buy this set 5 years ago?
There not called engines thair called locomotives or locos for shot
Lol'd at miscounting track. I miscount stuff all the time.
It’s actually called a GE Dash 8-42BP
🎉
Noice
I have that set!!!
you said kota its kato
Pretty sure I never said kota. People pronounce all kinds of things differently. The "correct pronunciation of this brand is KAY TOW But a lot say KAH TOW or some other variant. It happens.
BluDog35 actually, on the Kato website, they say to pronounce it KAH-TOE, because KAY-TOW is the name of a lot of movie characters, or real people ( Kato Kaelin) and so on. But otherwise, great video! I might get this because of your review!
also by japanese language, it would be KAH-TOE
it's GE if you have any more geshgin make a video i'm a big fan my user name on youtube is mad micke
Once more? I don't understand your comment. I'm newish to the hobby and I'm not "up" on the lingo.
