Sorry guys, but Chuck just posted that Kato is releasing their PA's in the DRGW 4 stripe paint.

I'm the happiest guy in the world today.

I'm waiting for F-units in WM.  Oh wait, Intermountain's already done them THREE TIMES IN 5 YEARS.

How about SD40's in WM? or C30-7's that were released in this century...

Oh wait, I just got the weather report from Hell.  No snow in the forecast...

Kato can pound sand.

No, Gary, it's just that I've eagerly awaited the next run of PA's.  Afterall, there's only 4 manufacturers doing them, and they only get re-run about 4 times a year.  It's just the thing that every N scaler needs!  Especially the ones that model anything east of the Mississippi and primarily freight haulers!  Thank you Kato, THANK YOU!! >:(

Hey Disgruntled in Dorchester, at least your road does get releases on a regular basis.

Even though NS was short, it still qualified as a Class I in terms of tonnage and revenue, yet there are exactly three locomotives that have ever been released in N scale.
