Well, looks like pre-order time to get that SP caboose I need. Last time I made the mistake in thinking "oh, it's just Athearn, there'll be plenty," and the first run was gone in hours. May delivery, I see.

orders for me Andy.  All SP C50-8 and and no SSW cabeese, unless someone has an actual real proto photo of a SSW C50-7.  UTLX in 1980s and conspicuity too.  A great month to announce Nscale GENSETS by my reckoning...

Sorry,  I believe that is Amherst, Nova Scotia and Halifax that are served by the Acadian Lines.  (I grew up in Maine of antecedents who immigrated from NS)

Northern Pacific Flxibles!!

I NEED to see that artwork now!

These were painted in a very classy grey/dark blue/silver scheme.  I need one for rural Montana bus service.

For sure, the model is nice... but that doesn't change the fact that there are no NS bay window cabs in the 557xxx series painted in NS paint.

Huh? The -7 is a perfectly good stand-in for a -5 , with no external differences:

Madness
C50-5 International Car Company - 1974 build
C50-7 Paciic Car and Foundry - 1978 build
certainly a 'stand-in' for the real thing, just like the Con-Cor model...
