Ho Scale PROTO 2000 Alco RS-27s are these units quality running models? I operate a DC layout but the sound option would be a great item. I would appreciate a response as Walthers has these on sale for a good price . . . oops don’t buy one before I do!

Great Sound

Great for conversion to RS18 with chip upgrade.

Best value for “good” sound and quality for the price.

I’m satisfied with these engines:

Hi Onrman: I agree with the other posters. Great sound, running, and detail. Here’s a pic of mine.

I have to aggree with everyone as well.I figure this is the nicest modelled Alco unit yet,the details are just perfect.I opted for soundless but the sound equipped ones I’ve heard do sound like the real deal.
