The ET&WNC RR HS Convention is this coming weekend in Banner Elk NC.
Johnny Graybeal has announced that Train and Trooper of Maine will be at the convention taking reservations for an all brass HOn3 ET&WNC ten wheeler. This model is promised to be affordable, but price TBA once a quote is back from the builder.

It is hopped that this will spur small scale modeling of the ET&WNC in time for the 2011 National Narrow Gauge Convention in Hickory NC.

I spent a nice afternoon with Jeff at Blackstone  at the NNGC at Durango. Most of the delay in shipping the HOn3 K-27s has been getting the right electric motor in the numbers they needed.  That couldn't be forseen when release dates were first announced.

Saw the announcement of the ON30 Lawndale Box car on the net. Any plans for more cars with this North Carolinia Narrow gauge name on them?
How about a set with loco and the little shortie combine. (see Matt Bamgarners book on the Lawndale.)
