Atlas St Paddy's Day announcements

[Bob Bufkin]

And I had the privilaged of running one in the Hagerstown yards years ago.  Also let me run an F7 and another SD.  Couple hundred yards back in forth in the yards.  Try that nowadays!

Oh no...

Man... I about pooped myself thinking that Atlas had done another phase of SD35... until I realized the N&W is an HO model.

They are doing all 4 3-packs of the Thrall 4750's they did in HO but all at the same time. I'm getting all 4 or at least the CNW's and the Great Lakes Carbon. That's all i saw that interested me.

Those 3 packs look pretty cool. Nice for a change from the norm.

[Robbman]

How much love do I have to give you to break them up so I can get just the older versions?

With all the other wonderful rolling stock Atlas has to offer, does anyone actaully need any more kaolin tankers?

Anybody who's modeling the middle third of the State of Georgia, the largest East of the Mississippi River, can never have enough Kaolin tank cars, or Kaolin hoppers. BTW, ever heard of Kaopectate, useful to counteract "Montezuma's revenge"? Well, the "Kao" in it is Kaolin clay.

P.probably 80% of all manifest freights on CSX and NS in Georgia have some kaolin tank cars. Between the Fox valley Sandersville Boxcars and the next run of Kaolin Cars, anybody modeling Central Georgia is in for an exoensive year. You are right though Wes, thismis the 3rd or 4th release of these cars and the market is not as hot as it was with the first run.

I was hoping they'd do the WM units in Speedletter again; think about how far you'd be in debt if they had.

Tim

Me too, but there are no more numbers they could do. WM only had 5 SD-35's, so far they've covered the gamut.

[wm3798]

Actually, no... they haven't done 7436 as a factory job.  They did the "no number" one in circus, which could be easily decaled, I did mine in black...  Since they typically release two road numbers, the choice would be to run 7436 plus one of the numbers they released in black as a circus repaint.  Personally, I'm holding out for the GP35's to come out in black, then they'll have to decide whether to do the original 500 series numbers, or the '67 renumbering.
