Title: New On30!
Post by: ksivils on May 21, 2016, 08:56:22 PM
There is a link to the 2016 Catalog and there is some new On30 stuff - sort of.

18 foot Murphy roof box car in grey with data.
two new paint schemes for passenger coaches.

lots of Porters - don't recall if these went out of production but they are in the new catalog

18 ft. black flat car data only

Most of the locomotives are still in stock.

Dang, I showed the Bachmann folks my ET&WNC tank car and was told that they might consider making it part of their line as it's just the unlettered one with the right lettering, and I was hoping maybe it might be in this year's line-up

I still think it'd make a great car as it's not an exact model but it's awfully darned close and the tank cars were used during the timeframe the ET&WNC had the green/gold ten-wheelers and also in the wartime black/gold colors. Two made it to the abandonment of the 3-foot line in 1950.
