- I finally took delivery of a Veranda Turbine! The protptypical successor to the Big Boy Steam engine.
This is the most robust, rell built, and feture rich O-Gauge engine I own asside from my Vision Line Big Boy!! Thats saying a whole lot!
The amazing layout was provided by the Chicagoland Lionel Railroad Club. @chicagolandlionelrailroadc8293
Quite a monster of a locomotive.
You are right about that. The photo shoot for the thumbnail took an hour because it's so heavy :-)
What a beautiful veranda Steve! I have the MTH premier ps1 version #75. I really love how you ran it with the Big Bog. Great video!❤️💯😎
Thanks, Frank! I need to look at the MTH gen 1 and 3 turbines, since Lionel never made those.
Beautiful video
Thank you
Nice lash up🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂
Thanks for watching
This is a great locomotive! I saved for a year to buy the Army version. I wanted something special to pull my POW car and other armed forces cars in honor of my father's service and being a POW for 3.5 years in WWII. However, I was great disappointed upon receipt of loco. 3 of the trucks were dangling off the bottom of the frame, and all worm gears were not showing an ounce of grease. I knew others who were experiencing same issues. I had to return to Lionel and was without for several weeks. They did return in perfect condition, which is important here. It was just a bad experience. I would strongly suggest checking worm gears for grease. I have again groen to love it.
This is great info!! Thank you for sharing!! I'm jealous that you got the Army version. Nice score!!
I WANT 1 OF THOSE, I ALREADY HAVE A VISION BIG BOY EXCURSION. 🙂
This is one that's worth it. And thanks for your service!
That is a nice locomotive. Too bad that there were those annoying, little problems with the paint and truck. I would also turn the crew talk off, as it isn't very realistic. That weight should make it a great puller. It would be interesting and fun to see how many cars you could run with it. Excellent video.
Thanks, John! I appreciate the support. After my benchwork arrives there will be a video of what this and the Big Boy can pull, separate and together!
Very impressive 👏 👌 👍
Thanks for watching!
