Very cool locomotive and cars. I really like the retro modern look to it. The fact that you can open the from and see the nose of the engine is really neat.

Lazzle Dazzle! love it... this is my favorite set... took me 3 years to find the BIG NO. 3... at a good price. I wish the whistle were better... sounds like someone is pressing the car horn... 
If you take the wick cover off the resistor, you will get a much improved smoke output...
So Here is my vid for this week a lead in to SHARK WEEK coming up!

Love that Lionel Shark. Have the ABA and the sound is great between the 2 engine being separate sounds also. Only my bells are not as loud as yours.

Thanks Josef... had the sound turned all the way up! I had to film twice because I had a beckoning from the top of the stairs from a greater power "WILL YOU PLEASE TURN THAT DOWN"!
I should have just saved that vid!
Yeah my B unit is in the shop under going Kadee conversions.

WHAT BIG TEETH YOU HAVE GRANNY!! DID YOU SHORTEN THE COUPLERS BETWEEN THE A UNITS? THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE AS MUCH OF A GAP BETWEEN THEM. Gary.

I took the silver backings off my units screens, a 10 minute job and the see through screens make them look better and somehow the sounds improved on the units. Sound is okay, its smoke that the wife won't let me run. Have to wait till she's out of the house and when she comes home first thing she always says is "I see your trains been smoking again".

"They're loud and they smoke!"  .... glad to hear I'm not the only one that gets nagged at times I seem to hear more nagging when the surround system is turned up a bit and I play my train sounds CD. |

Great videos guys!!
George, I really like the Hiawatha Atlantic. It's one of the prettiest streamlined steam engines. With the cars it makes a great train.
John, thanks for posting the two videos. I've always like those shark nose engines and FAs are a classic design.
