Recieved my first MT weathered cars!! NEW CAR NUMBERS!!!
« on: August 28, 2010, 11:30:04 PM »
I just received my first two Micro Trains weathered cars (The BN Covered Hopper and PRR Box car), and they look great!  My original complaint on the weathered products was that the releases were the same road numbers as the original, so I held off on purchase since I can weather my own cars.  Well I got these since I didn't buy the first PRR car, and I liked the grain car even though I had the first release.  Well SURPRISE SURPRISE, they renumbered the weathered release!!... GREAT!.. I'm definitely going to be looking closer at future releases!!

Yes, They have been doing this for a while now. I think the CN, Frisco, LV, Southern and the Rock Isl. box have new road numbers.. The only weathered cars that I don't have is the CN runner pack and I am not happy about that. They were sold out like before you could order them. This kind of thing makes me mad >:( because I collect cars. MT does some weird things sometimes and I can get upset very easy with them.. Like the Circus cars a pole load, come on.. As for the wethered cars modern Grafitti on older cars don't go together. I think that MT has taken some flack for that..

I have a few of them myself, and I think they have done a fine job on the majority of them.  Got to catch them early though cause they sure don't last.
