I pinched myself - the MTH 2015 Big Boy will be MTH's first O gauge locomotive with whistle steam. And with MTH's already amazing stack smoke effect that's best in class, I imagine its whistle steam will be head and shoulders over anything else. I don't need a BB as I have the VL BB on order but I really like MTH products, and the company's philosophy and want to keep supporting MTH. So my dilemma is - now that MTH will offer whistle steam, I am even more reticent to buy any MTH steamer right now, despite seeing 4-5 that I would really like to add to our roster. Why? Because I'd rather wait till the steamers I want are offered with whistle steam. Anyone else feeling this way?
