Review: Walthers GP 15-1 BNSF - Item was received in excellent condition. No damage to engine. Engine runs really well and is quiet. I had it pull 12 freight cars with no problems. Paint scheme and markings are crisp and well done. Details are minimal but you can add more if you like. I've read previous reviews before purchasing this engine and was skeptical about it. Glad I got this engine. It's performance so far is very good especially for the price. Just a side note, this is my first engine from Walthers and I plan on getting a couple more in the future. IMO, it's a good value and a very good product. Also, this is a DC engine. I have not taken the shell off to see if it's ready for DCC. For budget modelers, this is a nice engine.
Review: Slight modification for tight radius - Runs super smooth for the price, and the LED lighting is really pleasant offwhite color and realistic. No issues starting or unexpected stops. Others have said it can’t pull many cars, but I’m running it with 35 weighed, dialed-in, and lubricated roundhouse metal-wheel hoppers with no issues. My layout has a difficult switch immediately followed by an 18” radius curve. This throws a lot of prototypical engines off so I wasn’t surprised. This engine has a wonderfully prototypical coupler size. However I needed to install a 20mm length coupler that is longer than the short ones it comes with. This allows for a few more millimeters of movement so that the first car in the consist wasn’t thrown off the track in the troublesome section. It’s a straightforward change, but it’s the first time the change was needed on a 4 axel EMD. So just something to note, you’re better off with 22” curve minimums if you aren’t interested in the mod. I’m going to run it as stock for some time and then weather it. The real life 693 is easily found online for reference photos. Lovely hobby grade at a great price!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can the knuckle couplers and the hook and loop couplers that the Bachmann Thomas trains used work? is there a way I could change knuckle with hook?**
A: Knuckle and hook will not work together. Most people will replace hook with knuckle. You can however replace one hook on one car with a knuckle coupler and use it as a transition car as long as the knuckle end couples to the locomotive.

**Q: What are the two small plastic pieces that are included in the box with the locomotive?  I can't find any mention of them in the instructions.**
A: Those are optional snow plows, one for each end of the locomotive.  As the model is shipped, there are small footboards which are installed on each end of the pilot below the couplers.  If you look at the ends from the bottom, you will see that these are installed by two small pegs fitting into the pilot.  If you wish, you may remove the installed parts, and then press fit these snow plows, which also have small pegs that fit into the holes.  Either way, you will have two small leftover parts

**Q: Is there an N scale version of this locomotive?**
A: No,I do not have N scale version of this,sorry.
