Hey, Joe at Micro-Trains!

When are we going to get some streamliner passenger cars?


Hmm... not to open a can
of worms or anything...


Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.
"It works! It works!"

Given the number of other manufacturers producing fluted passenger cars, most equipped with lights and metal wheels, probably never.

I heard they are going to get into the "complete consist" passenger game and the first release will be the North Coast Limited.

If they do and I think it is a BIG 'IF' - don't be surprised if it is a heavyweight NCL....because they have the cars.

I may be mistaken, but MTL only has the cars to do a mock heavyweight NCL, not a prototype one.
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

With the long standing quality of Micro-trains n-scale cars, it is a reasonable question to ask regarding whether more modern passenger cars are in their plans for the future.

My current interest is for them to produce more body style heavy weights for Baltimore and Ohio.

I hope it is the Nancy Hanks II... that was the one that was a streamliner ('course the train's name was shortened, like the consist, by the SOU after the merger but at least it gained a dome)...
