Hi GUYZ,
Welcome to Whistle Stop Wednesday Videos. This week's featured engine is the Lionel Legacy CSX Heritage Unit Western Maryland AC 6000 from 2010-11. Great running, sounding and smoking unit. Hope you enjoy this video. Than you for your support.

At first glance before the video started I thought it was a Black Bonnet. Great looking engine.

Yeehaw, Wild Mary! Great looking engine Laz. We have the blue and grey CSX AC6000 and I wish I had two. They are a brute of an engine and the upswept back looks great. Also they have good engine specific crew talk. Too bad Lionel stopped using it on the majority of their offerings.

No turkeys huh? You must have the stealth version down there. Before the spring hunt opened here there were an estimated 13,000 in the Ottawa area alone. I see them everywhere.

Its a good looker, thanks for sharing the video.

You ever operate the container gantry crane. I have one that I have yet to remove it from the box, keep saying I will eventually build a container facility, someday maybe.

Thanks GUYZ for the CONGAS!!

SPENCE,yes I was thinking about getting a Black Bonnet but wow on the price. I’ll wait a bit and see if they come down.

GARY, yes something is up with these turkeys here. Maybe the logging and not cutting the alfalfa had something to do with it?

BILL, yes the crane works pretty good. I have used it a few times. I did have to use JB weld on the small gear inside. That gear seems to split in half. With using the JB a weld all is good now.
One of my best locos is my 3847 gp38 made in 2020. Nothing super fancy, just a lionchief. Looks great though and is a heavy hauler. If only they made a dummy unit for it.
