The Broadway Limited went from NYC to Chicago and on the return trip it was called The National Limited. I rode that train on it's last run to NYC, boarding it in Harrisburg PA. I even stepped out and rode for a way on the Observation Platform on the last car. Part of the trip I was on was from Harrisburg to Philadelphia and then to NYC

James, nice review. That's a whole lot of "smoke". Lots on impressive detail which seems to be the the norm for BLI's steam engines. I like the addition of the steaming whistle. I do wish some manufacture could come up with "smoke" that was lighter than air so it wouldn't waft back down onto the engine and layout. Cheers, Kevin

neat looking loco. I got to see one at Randy's Roundhouse in Lincoln. Couple details: the markers on the tender would only be used in a "light engine" movement. They were not used during normal train operations - apparently BLI wanted some extra colored lights. Second - the cab chatter. "Big Boy" locomotives were in operation BEFORE cab radios became common. The radio chatter is inappropriate for a 4-8-8-4 during their working acreers. Obviously UPP 4014 will have radio gear installed when in goes into excursion service.

You mentioned in the review that the locomotive did not like your curves. It may not be the case. The front 3 drivers were off the rails when you powered up the loco initially. It was an excellent review. I am a PRR modeler so I won't own one. It is an excellent model and a credit to the workmanship that BLI puts into their products. As always your reviews are excellent and informative. Looking forwards to the future ones.

Hey JLWii2000, Nicely done on the review. I would like to say one thing here though. The plate toward the front of centipede tender as they are referred to is the builder's tender plate. These tenders have a class just like the locomotives do. I do not remember the class without my book, but I do remember reading about this. I would like to ask you to do something for me in the future. When doing a review of this locomotive of scale, can you please tell us how many rail cars that the ounce pulling test converts to? Just a thought or you could give me the conversion formula and I will convert the 6.8 ounces myself.Once again, thank you for the review. I have 4 of these on order. I hope they will pull a 100 rail cars like the real thing and even better if it pulls more rail cars.Benjamin
