Recently got a Santa Fe 4-8-4 (#3783).  What a great running locomotive this is.  So smooth.

I added Soundtraxx Tsunami sounds to it.  It looks really nice pulling a string of my old Athearn Santa Fe heavyweights.

Next on my to do list includes changing the couplers to Kadee, adding an engineer in the cab, and add an ATS shoe for 90mph running.

Thanks Bachmann for really improving the running characteristics on this classic big steam locomotive.

If your loco is too heavy to lift, you'd better be able to ride in, on or behind it.
