Really cool locomotive,…do they have them in N-scale I wonder?
This from Korea Brass website:
"Korea Brass USA" was formed in 2015. It is the USA and world wide distributor of locomotives for Korea Brass located in Seoul, South Korea. Korea Brass has been manufacturing top of the line model locomotives since 1984. Korea Brass USA brings these superb locomotives to the US and other markets under the Korea Brass name.
Never heard of Korea Brass? Odds are you already have some of their locomotives as they have been making locomotives for big name model locomotive companies for many years in various scales. Support the original, support the source.
Pretty realistic engine sound. I was almost expecting to see exhaust smoke.
Interesting in several ways. A plastic loco "made" by Korea Brass? How does that compute? It did look good, and the sound was alright. Dana, the joint you made with the cut of cars moved the string back at least half a car length, but it wasn't rough. I didn't notice it during the video, but are the headlights automatic when changing direction, or do they work like the prototype?
Excellent engine sounds with the horns sounding more and more like the prototype. Will definitely consider this engine before my next purchase.
Just a note about what I said about who makes what .. Kato does make their product, and maybe a couple others…………………
We just got a new U25C on the market by Rivarossi/Hornby. Now we know nobody makes their own product, everything is made by a job shop in China or Korea. Is this product from Korea Brass the same product, just marketed by Korea Brass? With so many prototypes that are not modeled, why a second U25C?
