Broadway Limited’s HO C30-7 diesel is a powerful coal hauler
I love this locomotive. Sound quality is really nice (the horn is great!), and the locomotive actually sounds as if it is doing work. Detail is pretty nice…but may not appeal to true rivet counters. Drive is quiet at slow speeds, but gets noisy when moving at mainline speeds.
I’m getting one. They sound awsome! Hope they are!
I have 2 (UP) and they run very nicely and I love them. They have hauled 40 car grain train over our Club layout 12 hours a day at our State Fair without a hitch. I’d actually like to find another one to latch up with these two. Sound is very good, speed and running is smooth although they do sound a little loud at running speed.
