thank you!

Ok. Thank you for your reply. I will avoid this loco as it does not fit my needs. Is it safe to say that this locomotive likley has similar issues

Hi

Does anyone have the scoop on these locos? I am thinking about getting one from model train stuff.com
I know they are very basic but my question is
1. Are they still the same "toy train" model from 15 years ago or has this model been made a little better like the other newer b-Mann releases ie gp38-2, sd40-2
2. Is the moor isolated from frame so I could add DCC

The photo on model train stuff is not very flattering and looks like it even has old horn hook couplers. However I have seen photos from other dealers show knuckle couple and nicer looking detail parts like horns and bell.

So if anyone has bought one of these in the recent past could you please let me know

Thanks
