RMT Beeps

How about a review if you own one.

well, here goes: The RMT Beep is not too bad a unit- For the price. It's good for pulling about 5-6 cars(diecast), otherwise, i've read that it can pull up to 10 cars,on flat,level track. I've never tried it on an incline. It's a neat little switcher engine, with an adequate level of detail, has traction tire(just one), only thing I wish it had was a horn. There is enough room inside for a horn board, but then it might end up at 75-80$ instead of 50$.

I feel the Beep should not be changed one tiny bit! A $50 locomotive is a Godsend in our scale, and I embrace it wholheartedly.


I hope it start's a trend!!!!![:)][:D]

I also think K-Line has some Beeps in their current catalog.

I wonder if they are going to sell the power chassis without a
shell. It would be nice for those of us who have shells with no
power chassis. I have a C&O shell I bought from Taylor Made
Trucks, but they don't have any more motorized chassis.

ChesBchRy, RMT does sell the power chassis, the old shells from Taylor Made Trucks should be a drop on fit. I don't have the website URL handy, but a Google search for Ready Made Toys should get you there- Good Luck!
