I don't really see anything I'm after, but your milage may vary.  Lots of collector looking cars, not much in the proto department.

The bulkhead is wrong on the GN flats (close, kinda sorta). And the lettering looks mis-sized/placed, but it's hard to tell with such poor photos.
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

BLW has them up as well.

 The Z scalers finally get there SD40-2 in CSX YN3 but the color of the pilot, plow, steps and fuel tanks is wrong, its suppose to be black not blue.  ::)
Which ever side of the track I am on is the right side.

I placed my order of two SD40s for this month, but I need more. Just cant afford to blow my budget in one month. Who knows, maybe AZL is coming out with CSX GP60s next month.  ;D

Nothing for me this month, but the Blue Circle Car might be popular round here. The Interstate runner packs will be popular down here too.

The Nickel Plate car is of mild interest... Any thoughts as to accuracy?  Joe, what's the build date you used?

I bet Brian rolls over for the Rock Island runner pack...

Joe,

You and I might go down for the Interstate cars but we'll need to take some folks with us.  The Interstate interchanged with the Clinchfield, Louisville & Nashville, Norfolk & Western, and Southern, which means their cars could be seen over a pretty good chunk of territory.

For those of us living in the 60s the Nickel Plate car is a nice addition.

Thanks for keeping all of us in the loop.

Mark

Nice, another 3-bay Ornter, but alas not another CR run, guess I'm going to have to learn to strip and repaint Conrail gray,

Tempting. There is a special run that I have been eyeing on MTL's page, but I haven't made contact with the guy down in Texas.
