I wonder how the new MTH J will compare with Lionel's?
We have the older TMCC RS 5.0 edition that Alex M added the 4 chuffs and doctored the smoke on - It even smokes from the steam chest. Is a terrific model with the pre-Legacy multi-toned whistle. Can't imagine what else (other than whistle steam) they can add to these beauties!

The MTH engine model will probably be the same as the last run of 611 in their 2008 Volume 2 catalog. If that is the case, the MTH model will be less detailed than Lionel’s. The question will be the sound of the engine with ProtoSounds 3? From what I read from past threads, some did not like the sound of the whistle from the last Premier run with ProtoSounds 2. Back then some even stated they liked the sound of the whistle from the RailKing version better. Since, MTH will be making a new sound file with the recording of 611’s whistle after it is restored, I would assume the sound should be better but how will it compare to the sound of Lionel’s model is my question.
