More Gevos added to the Kato January announcement

[Chulvis]

It appears that the MSRP on these will be $115.00-$120.00 as Kato has announced it as a "Projected Retail Price" I suspect we may see an increase on the Gevos they announced last month.

Yay, CSX Gevos. Glad I sold my MKT ace's when I did got a nice profit out of. ;D

[Sokramiketes]

I thought someone was already making Gevos...?

Can we get Matt to do the CSX ES44DC's instead of AC's and then have our cake and eat it too?

[mcjaco]

Mmmm, cake.

As long as they come with low number boards and wide handrails I get a few.

As long as you want an early phase GEVO

As long as you want an early phase GEVO 

Do we even know what phase / roadnames the Kato is "accurate" for yet?

[NSES40DC]

kato should do BNSF/NS and then UP/CSX that way alot of locomotives will get sold out faster than just doing the same UP/BNSF roadnames first.

Of course neither Kato nor FVM have decided to model those exploding turbochargers!

Yea,I bet there is nothing like walking down the side of a locomotive listening to the sweet sound of 30,000RPM saw blade eating its way through the housing,locomotive body skin and finally headed straight for your face for desert!

Yep, and painted step edges, warning placards on the roof, and to not have to carve off molded grab irons before adding wire details...

Speaking of which, I picked up an Exactrail Wabash hopper this week.  They did a nice job on them.  Seen one?

Do know but the picture above has three fobs and two correct ones .
Kato webpage for the GEVOS locos says they are doing multiple bodies style for as deliver locomotives so we will see.
