Intermountain April Releases... Ouch!

I am paying for the dearth of releases in March... April is shear terror for Mr. Wallet.

Five different cylindricals I'm interested in, including two roads that I'd be interested in all six numbers.

Five different bi-levels  I'm interested in, including two roads that I'd be interested in all six numbers.

A couple of the already announced D&RGW 'Woodpackers' and clutch of FVM boxcars.

Mr. Wallet has been in the corner for an hour rocking back and forth, repeatedly telling himself that the bad voices can't hurt him  :)

Well look at it this way it will be anywhere from 8-18 months before it all gets produced with their track record lately. The Tichy wreck sets released this month were originally due in Dec.

Definately in for  C&O wreck train. Outside of that, unless Athearn Ethanol cars should just suddenly show up(fat chance). I'm getting by with a very lite month.

(I don't see a C&O wreck train on this list... :?)

The GT blue bi-level is neat, but I'm still waiting for the UP racks I ordered 11 months ago.    :RUEffinKiddingMe:

I still would like to see another run of CSX racks in either of these schemes:

I'd like to see the new numbers on the racks mix up the TTX and TT emblems for some variety.....

Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!

I'm actually tempted to buy that HO BN-painted EVO.  Used to model a 'modern day' BN in that Executive scheme and that model would be a nice display piece.

Not on the announcement flyer, but the next run of wreck trains are THE N scale release this month. :D

When circus color WM F units come out, I'll be in a heap o' trouble, but for now, Mr. Wallet may sleep peacefully.

A n scale version of that GM&O ES44 would hurt Mr. Wallet, but otherwise I have already ordered what I want from this list . . .

I've been barking up that tree for years with them. Finally they do them... now we just need them in CP Rail black, no multi.

Can someone give me a heads on on the era appropriateness of the CP and CN schemes?

I'm looking for mid 80s options... also, what service were these cars usually in? Cement? Potash? Salt? Other chemicals?
