Title: Any news on the N scale 2-8-4 Berkshire?
Post by: dtpowell on November 19, 2014, 11:30:15 AM
It's been a while since I've seen any news on the N scale Berkshire. Is delivery still expected before Christmas?

All news is appriciated.

P.S. Bet a nice Pennsylvania 4-6-2 K4s wouldn't take as long....Grumble ;-P

Someone recently told me it was going to be after the holidays into the New Year when they first start appearing.

It is looking like early 2015 for delivery on the Berkshire.

Wahhhhhh. A few weeks ago the hope was pre-holidays. Well, I was only going to be able to purchase 1 steamer now and 1 in the spring anyway. Looks like my decision has been made or me. Still looking forward to it. Thank you for the update. it allows me to budget.

Thanks to all for the update. Considering the loco was first announced this last August, a first of the year or spring delivery is great. I've waited six years for BLI 's PRR M1. The Berkshire is truly a short wait. I look forward to it.

That's OK, it was going to be rough on the pocketbook with the Kato FEF / passenger set and Berkshire hitting at the same time. A delay won't kill me.
