Hey all!
So after I finally got my DCS system in, I was able to set up and start running this new Imperial Daylight model with no issues!
I think it is very sharp and will look even better when I finish my layout and pull the Southern Pacific Daylight coaches out and run them behind the engine!
I really love the added mars light and the chains hanging down on the trucks of the tender!
I will add my concern to the already known issue about the adhesives used on this engine, though. The side skirting on my Daylight, while not pulled in front of the separately applied grab irons like a few people have mentioned, is still rather "loose" looking and is not fully adhered to the side of the locomotive properly. Since I do not have a pair of clamps, I will have to see if a small amount of superglue will do the trick here.
MTH needs to take note of this and up the anti here. It would only be a matter of time before someone gets a model that has completely fallen apart while still in the box!
Overall, though, I am pretty pleased with this engine!
