Here is the exact Locomotive 20-2370-1. I am a UP, SF, and BNFS guy for my diesels. The Monon C-40 smoker was weak and sound so so. I think for once I got the better end of the stick.
Can't stop working on the railroad!
Sorry for the late reply but yes it has Protosound 2.0 and smokes up a storm.
Seayakbill Sounds like a winner, the BNSF in the pumpkin paint scheme, IMO, is one of the best paint combinations available.

With the exception of the "Executive" and "Warbonnet" paint schemes, I haven't cared for any of the paint schemes they have had since dropping the Classic Cascade Green and Black, but that's just my opinion too
The OP didn't really give enough info to make an educated choice. Does the MTH Premier locomotive have PS2?, Loco-Sound? NO sound? Early Premiers were available with no sound, I gave my Step-Son a Premier SD60M that has no sound, I'm a Union Pacific guy myself, but He really likes the Cascade Green and Black.
It was not even mentioned in the OP, if the poster had a DCS system, TMCC, neither or both.
I am always leary of someone suggesting a trade, they wouldn't generally be offering if they thought that their side of trade was more valuable.
In the end the trade was a winner for the OP, and I'm Glad that he was Happy with the results.

Bill I did the trade and it was the best decision I have made concerning trains in a long time. If I knew how to post pics I would. It runs strong, smokes up a storm, and fits in with all the other Proto 2 stuff I have.

What do you want to do, they are just toy trains.
Sell it to him outright then put the money away.

Would you trade a nice Cadillac whose sunroof doesn't work for a Yugo?

I need some feedback here. I have a Lionel C-420 Monon Deisel with TMCC and Railsounds. It runs and sounds great except it is a weak smoker even after modifying the smoke unit. There is a guy that wants to trade me a MTH BNSF Green/Orange premiere locomotive for it straight across. The MTH looks and sounds great but has no box while mine looks like I just bought it including the extra traction tires and unopen tube of smoke fluid. Is the trade worth it?
