Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Again.   

Had to get that one in before the end of the year. All the money MT has saved me allows me to sit here and totally enjoy eating this delicious WaWa steak hoagie, before tonights activities, its like eating for free.

Bring on 2014 and the diner.

You know that ONY flatcar is actually kind of cool now that i've seen the prototype.

And the life boat runner pack . . . may be the first runner pack I buy from MTL . . . no really . . . . . .

Hi Joe,

I can wait for the diner as I am sure that it will be well worth it.

Have a safe and prosperous new year.

You should have a PM in you TRW inbox.


Regards

Al

Joe, Any chance of getting the boats as a separate load. That is a pretty cool runner pack. I'm in for the Seattle & North Coast Boxcar.

Speaking of new releases - I wonder where the "GUFE" weathered hopper got lost. It still hasn't  showed up at MBK.

Shayne (MBK's N-Scale Manager) typically holds the mid-month (weathered) cars and posts them to the on-line store with the following month's regular Micro-Trains releases.  I asked him about it once and he does it this way so that people who order all the MT monthly releases can get them with their regular month order instead of having to place two orders.  I suspect the cars are in the warehouse and will make an appearence on the website in about 2 weeks.   ;)

All the orders were filled on those and we still have some in stock.  Email    Mark@micro-news.com and let him know, I had them pull one for you.

Cheers

Thanks Joe, I appreciate it.  The reason I was hoping for MBK to have it in stock was because I was going to order that car in addition to several other items (which my other model-pusher, BLW, doesn't carry).  But BLW still shows those cars as available, so I'll try them first.  Just trying to support my favorite local mail-order store.  Plus the discounted price is enticing. But if BLW is also out of them, I'll come come back crying to you.  :)

I usually only glance at the New release thread. But was very happy to see the Navy Boat diagram, never expected to see that in an MTL  thread :)
Oh I believe the Trains to Victory book or another WW2 train book shows a string of flats with navy boats on them.

Will the new truck have the bolster pin hole centered or off set?  I have a Rivarossi diner whose bolsters did not survive removing the  original trucks, thus it needs new bolsters and I would like to use the new truck.

Wow, Joe is doing a really great job on those.  Amazing for being mass produced! :tommann:
