Hi Vader,

Here is the current basic feature list for the locomotive. We're finishing up the design of the model and should have a sample ready to show this fall.

Soundtraxx® Tsunami2™ DCC equipped for sound, speed, direction, and lighting control
Dual-mode NMRA-compliant decoder for use on digital (DCC) or analog (DC) systems
LED headlight with era-appropriate warm glow
Die-cast chassis
Wood or coal tender load per prototype
Metal side rods
Magnetically operated E-Z Mate® Mark Il couplers

I took a look at the shop and Bachmann already has prices up.
$439 per piece.

Jeebus that's a lot of money. I'll wait for it to show up on the second-hand market for half the cost.
