    These Lionel locomotives are actually made by the folks who made some of the finest brass locomotives back in the heydays of brass. They still do the occasional hybrid projects for some well known importers. All around, Lionel and their supply partners have done a stellar job over the last few decades to produce the great lineup we have today.

    I liked the whistle of the 24-wheeler. It is more like I expect a steam whistle to sound. The other one sounds more like a ship. The fantasy passenger set, combined with the new locomotive, was absolutely stunning!

    Thanks Chris, that video brightened up an otherwise dreary day here in the Richmond VA area! Snow, sleet, yuck!
    That Lionel 2-10-10-2 certainly works better than the original ever did! The originals soured the Santa Fe on articulateds, so much so that to my knowledge they never operated any others again. Turns out the didn't need to anyway.
    The Virginian on the other hand had ten very successful 2-10-10-2's built in 1918 by Alco that lasted until the 1940's.
    Best whistle? I like the Santa Fe's one, it's a bit more melodic than the Big Boys.
    And I loved that Santa Fe "Railfest" you put on! Even the "Blue Goose" showed up! Cool!

    The shot of all the locos running is possibly one of the best if not THE best thing i have ever seen in my life. It would be a railfan’s dream to see all of these locos all in the same place. It would have been amazing to hear these behemoths all running at the same time. Though, due to my autism, i would absolutely hate the noise, because autistic people get very overstimulated in loud environments. If you overwhelm even ONE of their senses, they’ll start looking very uncomfortable with the situation presented to them.

    Now Chris you might not agree with me but the whistle on the 2-10-10-2 sounds better than the big boy

      I think the 2-10-10-2 has an awesome whistle! It sounds even better in person. Thanks for watching Jacob!

    Realy like the glossy black and warbonnet paint scheme of the 2-10-10-2 but the Big Boy gets my vote for the best whistle sound.

    The model was first released in 2009 at the same time as the Pensy CC2. Those two were the first two locomotives with the whistle steam, swinging bell, and blow down smoke effect. When it first hit the market, the original model had the same whistle as you are using in the video. I know it because I watch it on RUclips.

    I have a good name for the 2-10-10-2 which I think people will agree (I think) maybe call it The Beast

    I think the Big Boy Whistle still wins, but the 2-10-10-2 is a beautiful engine. And the think you made a great choice in the Black Bonnet paint scheme. It looks like it was built for the Black Hills Midnight Chief passenger cars.

    I personally love the 2-10-10-2’s whistle over 4014’s, it just sounds right.
    And if at all possible, could someone tell me what type of whistle the 2-10-10-2 had as the default option?

    I recently found out that a boiler on steam trains is only really securely fixed at the back by the firebox. I always thought it was unique to articulated steam trains, but it turns out that MOST steam trains are securely fixed only at the back of the steam train. some may have "supports" along them, but most of the weight is beared further back.
    they are designed that way so that as the boiler grows and shrinks from heating and cooling, it has a place to go. according to my source, it also helps with traction in some way as it puts more weight on the drivers. idk if that last one is particularly true, but I know the first is the main one

    Wow, I think the 2 10 10 2 whistle wins. I usually chose the BB everytime. Really like that 2 10 10 2.
