Just for those who haven't seen it already.

Really sharp looking work on these units. Unfortunately they missed one key operational detail, these units came equipped with dynamic brakes unlike the CN units they previously put out and has the same cab controls as the CN units. Dynamic brakes were a necessity on on BC Rail's lines which exceeded 2.2% in areas hence the RCL (Remote Control Locomotive) B units in this pack which were used to keep couplers within their operational limits on the heavier grades between North Vancouver and Fort Nelson which is due east of Juneau Alaska to just to give you an idea of the remoteness of this operation. Hopefully they can put out a patch to add this operational detail to these nice looking units.

Have you notified them?

Yup, I sent them a note on the matter.

Can anyone do a run by test on the M420, and test the horn Doppler effect and venture an opinion? I have sent DW a note on this. Definitely different than the other diesels in their stable and what I would expect.
