HO Scale NS TopGon Model Train in HD

Visit Tim Dickinson’s HO Scale model train layout for an unusual sight – Norfolk Southern locomotives and TopGon coal cars traversing the line between Spokane and Seattle, Washington. In due time, we’ll cover awesome Burlington Northern action from the mid-70’s on Tim’s layout.

Featured in this video are Paul Federiconi and his completely custom, Norfolk Southern Dash9’s. Complete with ALL of the detail you could imagine (including some new Details West NS and Dash9 products), Paul even went as far as adding sound to the models with the correct, custom programmed, K5 horn and air compressor – not currently available on the market. Sound decoder by Loksound. Paul painted the models and used decals from ShellScale Decals (www.shellscale.com) Visit: www.detailswest.com

Paul’s Dash9’s pull 36 BLMA Models HO Scale TopGon Coal Cars in smooth, modern fashion. Running empty, the train makes good speed through the flat lands, powers it’s way up the grade, and glides down the hill in dynamics for a meet with an intermodal train holding the main.

Please visit our website for additional information on the Norfolk Southern TopGon’s and other products:

    Now that is simply one "Bad-Ass" layout you guys got there!  Very impressive and the details are outstanding.  I'm getting ready to start my layout in my 2-car garage, now my new train house that has an interior dimension of 18 feet wide by 24 feet deep.  I've just finished the track-plans with all the walk-thru isles and a few lift-outs which is all done in HO scale running BN & BNSF both.  If I can get mine to look half as good as what you guys have built here, I'll be one happy model railroader.  Very cool guys, thanks for sharing!

    I'm almost afraid to say this, but how would you guys feel about doing these in O scale? I have a bunch of Lionel NS bathtub gondolas, which are nice models, but I just feel like the train isn't complete without TopGons, and I'm sure the current O scale manufacturers won't be making them any time soon.

    I love this video.Modern American Railways captured superbly in HO Scale. Being involved in N Scale for a long time down here in Australia this is the excellence I work towards.
    Congratulations
