Very nice! That is an fine locomotive. I like the Rail King line, as it is a good value and they look real good, too. Anything that can run on the narrower radius curves is great for the hobby. Many don't have the wider radius curves like some of us do and this enhances their layout, with some real sharp locomotives. An excellent video, as always.

Terrific review, Chris! I have yet to add an MTH steamer to the collection but do believe that MTH does a great job with them as seen in this little O-6-0. Very nice. Your railroad is really looking great, and I appreciate all of the detail work you done on it. Bill B.

Great video and backstory! I just bought a custom run of this engine in the EJ&E delivery. "Big ups 👍 from Chicago "Train Dawg!"

Very cool video . I will say I didn't even know about the shorter drawbar being included in the box I was too eager to run it to even look . This is one reason why you get them right away because you do a thorough job on reviewing 😂 now I've got to dig the box out and get that drawbar to the club with the engine.

Thanks for showing this great looking little steamer. This is a great review for someone looking for the perfect steam loco to run in tight spaces. Great runner and smoker. Thanks, Chris.

What a great little engine! I’ve been on the fence about RailKing engines but this one looks pretty sharp!! Glad he let you borrow it so you could shine the light on this Semi Scale gem!

Fantastic looking little Engine Chris! The locomotive has a great shine to the paint and it runs and operates smoothly. I belong to a real train group and we are also working with Strasbourg to restore our own Pennsylvania B6 0-6-0

Great review, interesting to see the comparison to the Lionel one, the Railking isn't that far behind. Like you pointed out with a small locomotive like that the fine details are well done by MTH. That was really interesting about the smaller drawbar being included, I've never heard of that before. That is a great option.

One correction. The minimum curve is O-31 per MTH. Second is this model is a Railking Imperial. The Unit measures: 17 1/2” x 2 7/8” x 3 1/2”. I checked on the MTH website. An Union Pacific Premier version was offered in 2011. That unit measures:17 1/8" x 2 3/8" x 3 5/8". 7312 then is essentially scale. I think this why 7312 looked proportional to the passenger cars. Nice review. Thanks for doing a RK Imperial steamer. Would be interested, if you are able, in you to comparing a Railking engine to a Lionel lionchief 2.0. Both companies have recently offered RS-3s.

I bought the 3 piece plastic ville trailer set my question is how hard is it to paint them? Does the paint which what paint should I use? And does it bond to it good or does it take several paint layers? Never tried plastic ville stuff before

Does it go backwards? cant be a Stassburg engine if it doesnt go backwards.

Wow that engine looks nothing like the real one. However, the real one is an awful engine so who cares?! Engine will never run again so enjoy the model.
