Scaletrains tier4 n gauge GEVO

Just received a CSX tier 4 N gauge GEVO from Scale trains. The separate applied parts rival detail parts on an HO loco - the only thing missing are lift rings which would probably too small. Also runs good - rivals an Kato.

Hey, this is an HO scale-centric forum! N scale talk is not allowed here.

:)

j/k Yeah, I agree, I have a pair of them. It's a great model, it's a game-changer in N scale.

This forum is for any scale.  We are NOT just HO.

Do they run well with other makes in DC (Kato, Intermountain, Atlas, Fox Valley, BLI's AC6000's, etc.), or do they have to be run with other ScaleTrains Gevos in order to keep everything moving at about the same velocity?  (I assume that wouldn't be an issue in DCC, but could be wrong.)

I would have to say the motor is closer to an Atlas/FVM/Intermountain than a Kato.
