THANKS for sharing!

Nice to see that an O scale dude found the Brute fascinating enough to get one. He also apparently did not even have a complete circle to run it on! His enthusiasm more than made up for his lack of a standard gauge layout!

Only wish he had some green state cars to run behind it!

Nice!

Looks if you have clearance problems you could buy and swap out a shorter pantograph for the taller one.

Scott, that monster makes those blue comment cars look like gondolas, LOL

Wow, if MTH comes out with the passenger cars for that guy they will have to be gigantic.

And come they will in the February "Lionel Corporation Tinplate" catalog!

A set of four will run about $2000 - 2200.

Scott,

Outstanding video (brilliant to shoot the locomotive from the flatcar while moving).

Your layout and train room is wonderful!

The Outtake

Scott,

I have to admit, I did like the first video a bit better than the second (outtake) video.

I am not sure why.

Who is that guy in both videos?

I know it is not you, as the "Hat" is missing...

I only wish MTH would offer some better electric loco sounds. The present sounds are too "generic" and the crew talk is kind of goofy.

Hopefully, MTH will get the CORRECT sounds for that forthcoming equisite Swiss Kroc! At least LGB got the EXACT digital sound recordings of the RhB "baby" Krocs for their version of that engine, and they were the best electric loco sounds I ever heard from a model loco!

PS: I DO like the horn and bell sounds on the new Brute!

Scott,

Loved the "Outtake"!

I'm disappointed though that you didn't wear your OGR Forum hat, almost didn't recognize you!!!
