IM January Announcements - F3's are back

[Dave Schneider]

I would love to see IM or Kato do the F-7s in Milwaukee Road orange and black. They had 118 A and B units, and this scheme has never been done by either manufacturer.

Best wishes, Dave

I agree Dave. Soaking Sante Fe Katos to make Milwaukee orange and black units now.

I am hopeful that IM will get around to tooling/producing some of the other phases of F3, mostly the ealr F2/F3 phase I and the late F3 phase IV/F5. I would like some ealry B&M units and some late MEC and B&M units.
