    This short video shows continued testing of my new N Scale Broadway Limited Imports (BLI) T1 4-8-4. This time the engine leads an express train of a mix of ATSF and various east coast railroads heavyweight cars plus a few ATSF Express boxcars eastbound starting at Paradigm (Holliday, KS) and ending in Union Station (KCUS).

      Thank you Joe. The engine is a nice addition to my steam engine collection. I had to wait a year for it to arrive after pre-ordering it from BLI…..John

    Great structures and unusual models (Nautilus?). I particularly like the biig donut/bagel. Layout looks fantastic and is a real acheivement.

    • @tanzj
      @tanzj  Před 5 měsíci

      Hi, Thank you for your kind words.The Nautilus was a special release by Lowell Smith a couple of years ago. Most of the buildings are kits but there are a few 3D printed items here and there. The donut on top of the shop has actual sprinkles that we got from the grocery store. Thanks again for all of your comments…..John

      Thank you. Testing the engine pulling different consists also helps to break it in and make sure that it doesn’t have any early issues…..John

    If I didn't already know that you model N scale I would say it was HO. The loco looks like it's your new favorite.

    Very nice engine John. Are you going to letter it for the UP ? Happy model railroading & greetings, Filip

    • @tanzj
      @tanzj  Před 5 měsíci

      Hi Filip, Thank you. The engine will eventually be decaled as an early ATSF 4-8-4 with a coal tender prior to their conversion to oil. That would put the engine into the 1927- 1941 era which is okay since I model the steam to diesel transition era….John
