I ran one of these the other night on a friends layout. Nice looking engine but the smoking whistle is really dumb. Not worth the extra trouble. I'm spoiled by the visionline BB. The soundest on these I also feel is lackluster. Quiet too. Just doesn't give you that massive engine feel. We we're also running a vison challenger at the same time and the MTH BB just kind of got lost in the background with other trains running at the same time. Pretty to look at but wasn't slightly impressed.
