Thanks man! I enjoy your vids too. Congrats on the purchase! But be careful handling that cab forward. It's got so much detail, it's hard to figure out where to grab it. I'm not kidding.

I took them over to the club to run, but I forgot we were having one of our open houses this weekend, so I didn't shoot any video. There'd be way too much background noise.

Hey thanks that means a lot! But darn I was looking forward to that video lol that's ok at least now the sounds will be a surprise to me on the model but according to your previous posts the sounds is quite excellent. Does the chuff stay in sync with the engine, and also do the drivers go in and out of sync like the real thing?

The chuff is not sensor-synchronized like the BLI and MTH models. But you can adjust both the chuff interval AND the rate of change during acceleration on the Intermountain's Loksound decoders, so you can get quite a good match with wheel rotation. The chuffs go in and out of sync.
