N scale American EMD F59PHI diesel locomotive. I've been pre-ordering it for about 3 years, but it finally went on sale recently. Wonderful vehicles that arrive just when you've lost the desire to buy (lol)
The overseas toy-like coloring is wonderful.
This is the painted version of the regular Amtrak Surfliner.
And a painted version commemorating the 10th anniversary of operation.
Operation Lifesaver wrapping painting that tells you not to cross the tracks without permission.
As far as painting goes, I think they're doing their best. The silver plastic on the truck is a little subtle. It might look better if you paint it silver. The clear parts on the windows still have some burrs left, so it's a bit rough, but I feel like it's better than last time. Handrails are also installed by the manufacturer.
Mechanically, is it strong against low speed driving? Apparently, the gear ratio is different from the conventional product. It seems that mixing is not possible with analog operation. I don't know because I haven't actually driven it, but there are rumors that it has become easier to install digitally controlled driving (DCC). I haven't taken it apart yet, so I don't know for sure (lol)
You too (lol)
