PRR DB4 containers Who wants to make'em?

[Alwyn Cutmore]

David,
Do you have a estimated date of availability. The items just look superb and I would like a couple of 12 packs at least.

I do hope Bob comes good with the gons.

Regards

Al

Yes! I can't wait to throw my money at them!
My hope is to order them when I order more crawlers.

I got a gon.
Need containers and decals. (for containers and the gon)
I also still need to assemble the gon and the crane boom loads that I threw money at Bob for.

Bob, that is slobberingly delicious! Can't ....wait....can't!
My memory might be fooling me, but I seem to remember that the center panel was wider than the others on the Gra Gon?

Other good news related to this is that Mt. Vernon Shops already has the decal set we will need, we just have to have 20 or so orders together so it will be done in our scale!

You should start a new thread so that we can all ooooh and ahhhh there...

Are you going to reopen the store or just use email for orders Bob?

Shortly!? What does that mean?    Now I'll be checkin' MBK 20 times a day. Can't wait. I'm good for 3 or 4 sets.....or maybe I should stock pile them now and ebay'em later to fund my IRA account. Hmmm.

Ok, next project... supersizing your Z scale PRR track bumpers to N scale. 
Thanks

I asked how I pay you for it / order it days ago via reply , and regular eMail a week ago or so . You never got back to me , and I even brushed my teeth . At sea I am .

MBK and Chuck have just placed their orders today (both quite healthy ones); I am casting them right now, and should be shipping them Monday. So don't bother sucking up bandwidth checking their sites until maybe Wednesday or Thursday, after they've had a chance to unpack them.

Richie,

I am getting all of the orders together now to see which ones I can fill right away or in two weeks when the brake gear castings arrive from PSC. I have plenty of kits (minus brake castings) to fill all the orders on most of the items. I sorted them out last night and was going to start emailing everyone tonight.

Payment will have to be either check or CC. PayPal is being a (&!#*$&^!*$ as usual and have not re-enabled my account so I can have full access to my funds that were there before everything happened. I intend to charge a flat $7 for shipping any # of discontinued kits via Priority. For CC, PM or email a Ph# to discontinued@traincat2.com.

Sorry Dave for the short Hijack.

I used a very early drawing only to let people know that there would be another Gon available in the near future for the NZT Containers.

Yes, but I am having to build it from scratch as the old store was deleted by Big Commerce.

Chuck has them listed as pre order.  Have ordered 2 sets.  I think this is the fastest I've ever seen product go from a want list to actual built.  Great job David.

How about the ICHABOD decals?  The photos were posted on February 3rd, DKS offered cleaned up images on the 4th and I created the artwork and had the decals printed on the 5th.  The initial batch of decals was shipped on the 6th.    I'm not a "real" manufacturer, but (with DKS' assistance) I provided a product to several N scalers on TRW.

But seriously, I agree that DKS (as a manufacturer) did a superb job of bringing an new niche product to the market (while also documenting his progress here). I just wanted to point out that if the TRW members put their heads (and skills) together, things can happen rather quickly.
