Title: Pictures of the New Products
Post by: Mike_AA9ZY on August 26, 2008, 05:25:08 PM
When are we going to see more pictures? I'm very curious about the Milwaukee Road items, because that's what I model. ???

Hi Mike,

We will post them as soon as we get an approved sample.

Are these pictures going to be posted before the next OGR issue, or are you folks waiting until they publish the Williams By Bachmann article?

Hi Mike,

I am hoping to have prototype samples by mid October in time for the Eastern Division TCA York meet.  I will have pictures posted shortly after I receive them.

Hi 3rail,

Are the Milwaukee Road engines and passenge cars still on schedule? I can't get to York, so I'm hoping to see the pictures this month.

Hi Mike,

I probably won't know until a few days before York if we will have a sample or not. Stay Tuned.

Hi 3rail,

Thanks for the quick response! I also wouldn't mind seeing pictures of the new F3 and GP-38 engines. I've looked at the ads in OGR and CTT and drooled!  ;D

Wow! Those are really nice. Thanks, 3Rail!

So, will those cars and E-7's be available at JusTrains for Christmas?

Also, will you on release a dome car or skytop lounge car at some point?

BTW, my hope is that someday you guys will offer either the F-3 or F-7 in Milwaukee Road freight colors.

Anyway, you made my Sunday! Thanks again.

Mike,

Delivery for Christmas -  it is going to be close.  If the info I have right now remains true they will make it.  No dome planned right now,  and we cannot make a dome observation without making new molds.

Regards,

Too bad you won't be offering either a dome car or Skytop obs car, because nothing says "Milwaukee Road passenger trains" more than those two cars.

And the Skytops went to the CN, right?

MILW Super Domes were repainted into UP yellow.  Some even ran over Sherman Hill on the UP CITY trains!
