Icon used for Peteski.

What do folks here think? How would you compare the running and detail quality of BLI new stealthengines to Scale Train Rivet Counters of the same model, assuming no DCC from ST? They seem very close on reservation pricing from various dealer, $135-140.

Based on production photos of each,
on Detail .....
I'd say Rivet Counter Scale Trains hands down..
BLI seems more comparable to Scale Trains Operator Series.

Operations I can't vouch for..

Actually Gary H. is the one reminding members to use scale icons, but thank you either way.  ;)

Also thanks for reminding me about Scale Trains and that they produced new batch of UP turbines.  They owe me some replacement ladders  for my turbine.
