Any particular locomotive? The only FVM locomotive model that I have is a GP60M, which is really nice. It runs well and looks good. There was a problem with the fuel tank being too far aft on the GP60M, but you can find a fix online. It hasn't bothered me enough to date, so I have not attempted the fix yet.Here's a GP60M thread: https://www.therailwire.net/forum/index.php?topic=28977.0Here's a video of the Hiawatha 4-4-2, which was a preproduction model. Production models have received rave reviews to the best of my knowledge: https://www.therailwire.net/forum/index.php?topic=22508.msg213775#msg213775You can do a search for more FVM threads.Hope this helps,DFF
I can hardly wait until FVM brings out their ACes in UP and BNSF. Bye - bye Kato...
I switched my pre-order at an e-tailer from the Kato ACe's to the FMV ones, partly because of the simpler design, partly just because I want to support a smaller, U.S. company. Not to denigrate what Kato has done for the hobby, but I'd rather my money support a "local" business.I'm putting a sound decoder in my NKP Heritage GEVO; will post results when I'm done. It looks to be a pretty easy conversion.John C.
