the missabe 2-8-8-4 is just awesome, if I don’t find a brass version, if someone makes a plastic, I’ll get it.

as far as sound goes, I have the BLI 2-6-6-4. roxors, major N&W fan and so glad this engine got made.

I tinkered with sound adding sound to my rivarossi 2-8-8-2 double chuffing it…heh.
if you get sound, you will like it. yep, if you heard O Winston Links stuff , you know how cool it is.

If your looking for just the model ok, but I look for the effect as well, the sound adds to it.

I am still working on my layout, no real running stuff yet, I got Bachmann’s ez DCC and placed my 2-8-8-4 on a test track and just played with all the features…

how much fun can you have with an engine just sitting…8-D

I prefer sound and everything else that adds to realism. Whether or not we choose to use everything is a personal preference. I think it adds so much more to a layout, with the loco coming through a pass in the mountains, puffing smoke and whistle blowing.

And if they continue this no-sound option, that Santa Fe 3800 class is coming to me much cheaper than I planned!
