How many cars can the HO Rapido GE 44-ton engine pull? We tried it out!

Have you seen the new Rapido GE 44-ton HO locomotives in action yet? In this video, Scott Wiesemann tests his new Sacramento Northern switcher out on Burr Stewart's HO BN layout to see how many cars it can pull. They don't come up with a precise number, but they do demonstrate that the engine pulls well and looks and sounds great. Along the way there are the usual "Bang"' 's and Burr's entertaining and sometimes informative narration. Burr's HO/HOn3 model railroad is set in the BN's Seattle region in 1973, three years after the 1970 corporate merger that created the Burlington Northern (BN) Railway out of the Great Northern (GN), Northern Pacific (NP), Burlington Route (CB&Q) and the Spokane, Portland and Seattle (SP&S) railroads. Playing smaller roles on the layout are the three-foot narrow gage (HOn3) D&RGW fictitious "west coast extension", the Milwaukee Road (MILW)'s western extension and the Union Pacific (UP). It's unusual to see a Sacramento Northern engine this far north, but, as we say, this channel is about "reality model railroading", which means sometimes friends bring over "stuff" to play with, or, in this case, test. For even more "fun with trains", and additional details on the layout and its operations, here are links to some of Burr's previous videos that focused on them: For switching Interbay yard, watch these: Part 1 - Switching Interbay:    • Part 1 - Switching Interbay Arrivals on th...   Part 2 - Switching Interbay departures:    • Part 2 - Switching Interbay Departures on ...   Part 3 - Heading east from Interbay:    • Part 3 - Heading East from Interbay on the...   For highlights from other op sessions, watch these: Part 80 - Highlights of three BN operating sessions:    • Part 80 -  Switchers, locals & hotshots - ...   Part 37 - Highlights of an op session with FOBNR:    • Part 37 - Highlights of an HO op session w...   Part 11 - Op session #25:    • Part 11 - Burrlington Northern HO trains r...   For narrow gauge operations, see: Part 4 - Narrow gauge mine run to Cascade Copper Co. :    • Part 4 - Switching a Narrow Gage Mine Run ...   Part 42 - HOn3 camera car tour:    • Part 42 - HOn3 Camera Car captures continu...   For completely different "onboard" tours of Burr's HO scale model railroad layout, see two "cab view" train ride videos: HO standard gauge lines at    • Part 40 - Burr's complete HO layout tour f...   HOn3 narrow gauge lines at    • Part 42 - HOn3 Camera Car captures continu...   Another comprehensive orientation to the layout as a whole, with maps and station diagrams, is shown in "Part 38" of Burr's model railroad operations series here:    • Part 38 - BN trains and layout overview ma...   and a briefer 4-minute orientation video is at:    • Overview 4-min intro to the Burrlington No...   You can find more information about the real Burlington Northern Railroad, which operated in the US "Pacific Northwest" between 1970 and 1995 (and the subsequent BNSF and Montana Rail Link (MRL)) by joining the Friends of the Burlington Northern Railroad at https://FOBNR.org . The Great Northern Railway Historical Society is at https://gnrhs.org and the Northern Pacific Historical Association is at https://nprha.org . All of these volunteer organizations are terrific resources for modeling Pacific Northwest trains in earlier eras.
