It would seem as though food is becoming a luxury in the budget!

Cool schemes, but I really wish they would make a Greenville-prototype car to wear the Greenville schemes announced in this run...

Close enough is all you can do for endless types of car in N (unless you are good at 3d prototyping and own a injection molding factory or are immensely talented at scratchbuilding).

Heck, we can't even get correct air horns for countless locos in N. ::)

Mark, I know what you mean... I retuned a bunch of CP SD40-2's to Kato because they didn't have "Dofasco" molded on the trucks. What is with these mfg's missing such an obvious thing?

 ;D

Not the mention the wrong steps, rear end detail, pilot, headlight and bell positions ...

And on and on and on and on. Did CDN RR's order power without all of these "fun" little differences up to the mid-90's?

ICG & FAMILY LINES - GREAT !

I have 'adjusted' the L&N Blue scheme to resemble some greenville painted cars - makes for nice variety !

Looks like I'll be calling Chulvis AGAIN.

IMO, these have been great looking and running cars.
