If you go back to the November 7, 2008 post you will read, it is do out the first quarter this year, as told to me back then by the Back man. So as he often says ANTISAPATE.

Me thinks it might be getting closer...
Look what I just saw on 120 point me:

I think Bachmann may have invented a shrinking machine...that is one fine looking model. 
Check the museums, one of their crummies is missing ;D

It's getting closer, I know it's coming. I can feel it . The long caboose is going to look great behind my k-27. My God anticipation can really stress one out. Come on April.

That is a REAL beauty!! See the internal details, furniture, lighting and even a conductor's oil-lamp on his desk!!

This is going to be a seller like nothing has been before - it makes my AccuCraft brass version look really overpriced and lacking in detail for sure.

Mine is already ordered here in UK.

I've had a item #88798 Painted Unlettered Oxide Brown on pre-order with my dealer for at least two months.  This should be a top notch addition to a fleet of 1:20.3 equipment.

No doubt should the caboose show up early on in the distribution a member of the "Amen Choir" will have some SA remark on how I managed to get one of the early release models.
