Not surprising, but good to hear nonetheless.

A newly tooled locomotive in 2013 would be anything but DCC ready?  I must have missed something.

I have been sitting with baited breath on the diner.

SW1500 will be good as well.

That is very good news!

But I'll hold my enthusiasm until we get more verification...  I made the mistake of believing one of the "insiders" at Walther's about the SW1200's accepting a "saddle" type decoder like the RS2's (I then pre-ordered two of 'em based on this person's word) and when they arrived? 

Ah... No. :(

I had forgotten about the plurality of the headlight(s).  To the barricades! ;)

Best wishes, Dave

If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

I want anything except a Pennsy diner................... (Ok, the Canadian Pacific guy had to say it)  :trollface:

A HW baggage woud be nice; especialy if it's different than the old Riverossi model.....

Now; who do we have to bribe for a single window heavyweight coach ? Really... seriously..... (LOL)

(I know it's a technical issue..........)

You must have been hiding under your layout to have missed the lengthy (and even somewhat tumultuous) discussion of the DCC compatibiluty of this model in this multi-page thread https://www.therailwire.net/forum/index.php?topic=29948.0  :facepalm:
