Another GREAT Review Eric!!! I always learn something from each of your videos! Thanks for the time and effort you put into your videos!!!

just wanna say i love your videos and keep up the legacy stuff!

I’m picking up a PRR non powered version tomorrow. I will be the first non-GE “DD” on our fleet roster. Currently we roster 3 U50C’s from MTH, ironically all are 5037, but all 3 are different in their paint as we use them for a show we film. One is factory clean, another is weathered, and the last one is painted in a “what if” Greyhound paint.

Congratulations to Eric on his one millionth awesome engine lol! Another great review and it was nice to learn some history. Thanks. Would be great to see you do the follow-up video on your camera car. Looking forward to buying your new dvd.

Thanks Eric for another great review. I was at one of the hobbyshop vendors today at the WGH Train Show in Chicago. He had a powered U.P. and Milwaukee Road DD35A's for about $539.00 but, I opted for the Santa Fe AC6000 Warbonnet next to it instead for $430.00. Keep up the grat reviews. Lookin forward to that Ice Cold set.

Great review Eric! Lionel did a great job with the sounds of the EMD 567 prime mover.

I think Lionel should make the DDA40X.

Great video Eric! Love the new engine! Thanks for sharing! I took a deep breath when I saw that consist and I feel better! LOL! Thanks!

As delivered from EMD, there was no strobe light on the cab roof(they were added in the 1970’s), and all were delivered with Dependable Transportation on the cabs.

Outstanding video Eric! I really like this engine a lot! I'm looking forward to seeing you review of the BNSF ice cold express!

Nice review of Lionel Union Pacific DD35 diesel locomotive. I must buy one.

man i love your reviews

Great review! Can you do a review of that MTH DAP DD40AX set that you were talking about please?

Well done as usual. The quality of your camera work is first rate.

I like this view better than the other Eric! Please do it more.

I'm gonna save up for one of these, I like how Lionel made these in southern pacific and in New York Central colors

UP #72 -- 2011 EMD DD-35A, 2 CAT 3406Bs, Dependable Transportation logo on the cockpit. I'd like to have this unit because I saw it in the 2011 Signature Edition catalog, I believe. The Double Diesel family includes the DDA-40X Centennial, and only the DD-35s are also produced with booster units. Southern Pacific only had the boosters for the Double Diesels, and they make a perfect lashup with the GE U-50s. I also found out that Lionel made these in New York Central Lightning Bolt, PRR Brunswick Green, and Milwaukee Road liveries. Union Pacific owns both the Milwaukee Road and Southern Pacific.

I have one and it is amazing. Pulled 50 cars for an hour and bearly warmed up.

Thank you for an excellent review of this model. According to EMD records there were 15 A units built and 30 B units. EMD originally intended to build only B units and frame them with GP-35 units. I have no photo of UP 72 but I have a photo of UP 72B. It is fairly free of ornamentation just like the Lionel model. EMD records indicate SP did own the DD-35.

There is no DD35B… only DD35’s and DD35 A’s.

Hey I bought the DD35 and in UP colors just I need a DD35 B unit to complete the look is their one ?

I got to run a DD35A at I love toy Trains- The Store last week. It runs great, unfortunately it's too big for my layout, but not the club layout.

I'm sure MTH would've taken the time to research this engines history to get each detail right Lionel just wanted to pull a fast one just to get on the market after them not caring to put it out until year after it as mentioned in the catalog, on the other hand the model sounds great. Excellent review as always Eric

Awesome review Eric!!! It looks like Lionel did a great job on the DD35A, it looks and sounds great, love the horn! By the way, I finally purchased the materials I need to start my bench work, I can't wait to get my trains off the floor! Of course, as usual my timing is impeccable, I finally start my layout and then Woodland Scenics burns to the ground! Oh well, what are you going to do? Anyways, thanks for the awesome review bro and have a great one!!!

One of these engines are on display here in Nebraska

That is a great diesel locomotive

Great Review as always Eric. Nice Engine, It's a shame about some of the details but all-in-all a really nice engine.

My DD35a is in...yet I don't remember ordering one...lol. Apparently I ordered the Southern Pacific version...I'll have it Friday night.

Would you happen to know where I could get some of the same motors that Lionel uses for their engine would you?

that engine is really nice i took a look and some pictures of it

That is a monster!

could you run the dd40ax and the dd35a together

are you going to get the vision line baldwin centipedes when they are released?

BEAUTIFUL

Does it have dynamic brake sounds?

Do you ever go out to Trainmasters out in Duluth?

Nice Big Engine. Mee likeee

Thanks, Eric. Another great review. 'O' scalers are spoiled for choice these days.

Nice Engine Eric! What kind of camera do you use, I like the quality!

@AloneIStand454 Yes, I've already ordered one.

why were all the dd35s scrapped but not the dd40s?

Did you get the locomotive from legacy station

@dbdrdbag No, I pre-order the majority of my trains. I ordered this when it was cataloged back in 2010.

Cool! My friend was driving one!

OH MY TOD YOU HAVE FRIEND1!1,1,!!

I have never seen the DD35A before but I have seen the DDA40X. It was at hobby town USA. it was about $400. But you could not get it because #1 it's HO scale #2 I think it's bachmann

@byates59 I hear ya man. I can't wait to transfer my central carpet railroad to an actual table or bench. But in live in an apartment so I have to make some room.

I love that engin

are those Bachman trains??

Right on!

How much the DD35A cost

@bonniemalikpeter That's great.

Awesome.

0:36 Correction: It is “DDA40X” and not DD40AX. The centennials were originally supposed to be designated as DD40AX but it was changed during development. Just a small correction as that’s incorrect.

Nice!

Das sieht echt cool aus. Leider verstehe ich die Amerikanische/Englische Sprache nicht gut. Hast du auch den The Blue Comet? Was ich dir sehr empehle ist der Deutsche Adler oder den Inter City Express T (BR 411) Gruß aus Deutschland

@AloneIStand454 I've been there once or twice, but I mostly buy from Legacy Station because he gives the best prices hands down.

you should run those passenger cars behind your DDA40X

@carshowkiosk Watch the last minute of the video and I give the store info for where you can pick one up.

I wanna see that on o42

amazing

The price is discussed toward the end of the video.

O gauge is worth the cost! Plus just search around for good deals.

@byates59 Thanks, buddy.

The idle sounds like you MTH MRL SD45

Why does it look like there is a door missing in the middle of the locomotive??

@@Ericstrains Ah ok

I honestly prefer Lionel over MTH , but Lionel's models are pricy, and MTH's have a more affordable price. So if you buy an engine from Lionel, and get the same thing from MTH, it's cheaper but basically the same thing. Lionel and MTH both make a great product

i think the sunscreen could be puchased seprately

it sems that all of the things that it is missing or wroung you could add your self. like paint over the "dependable transportation" and add a decal saying "we deliver". buy a little led strobe light and make some sun screens out of brass or chip board. i also know you did a view on the MTH DD40ax butcould you do an uptaded reveiw on that and on the Union Pacific M-K-T (KATY) Heritage unit made by MTH or Lionel, im not shure you makes the one have/ Thankyou

Just some problems with that, the first is I live in a model train store dead zone and the closets is an hour and a half up the motorway in Brisbane, the second is AUD inflation on electronics which puts trains $300-600 more than the USD, if I went online I'd end up with $100+ added post cost. I ended up skipping O Guge and when on to building my own G guage trains. trucks are $10-20 motors are $100-200 and I'm making my own DCC system. every loco I end up building won't cost much over $400 :)

The DD35As were 88ft, the DDA40Xs were 98ft 6in.

take a deep breath, I love that comment!

Oh Eric if you heard of MineCraft I have built two DD35As #72 and #70

I'm pretty sure the DD35As do pull passenger cars

how manney car can it pull

Ah Yes ! The DD35 A . A KIT BASHERS DREAM !!! #1 DD35 B #2 THE DD35 SAND BOXES ! FIXED PILOTS ! SO MANY THINGS TO DO., ITS GRRRRRREAT !

the price on this engine is way lower than I thought it would be, if I had the curves I would love to get it

@PREZILLA2009 No, the engine is made by Lionel.

The engine dose excursion trips helping the 844

@esiegel76 pulse i am a hug fan

@roberttrains not necessarily :-)

I'm bthe 💯th comment. Shame everyone was scrapped.

I was thinking of going into O gauge trains but their way, way to expense. I keep trying to get into model trains but he cost and on going track and wheel maintenance keeps putting me off.

whats non powered

@Broncort1 don't you hate when that happens

it is like the turbine:D

Around $500 or so

u.p is my train fans!

I think Lionel should have done fictional road numbers

I gotta say I'm somewhat dissappointed in my SP DD35a...its so "Plain Jane" insofar as detail is concerned...not to mention that its 3 inches smaller that the MTH DD40AX that I sold on ebay to make room for this engine (many regrets now).

It’s DD A 40X

I honestly think that mth starter sequences are better than Lionel (except for vision line gg1)

it's not DD40AX it DDA40X

i went on to brass trains .com and i got a dd35a with a strobe light and with windo shade get back to me !!!!

It's an engine with no motor in it.

Eric, did you watch this product video before bought this engine? kzread.info/dash/bejne/iWaBo7CYlqSfhbQ.html&feature=related
