I'd like to see some more truck lines or generic trailers on the 53' model.

These are exciting models...

Hopefully some 1/160 construction models are forthcoming from someone too....

Edit:  It looks like Lou beat me to the forum by a minute and a half this morning.

Wow!  That's amazing!!

After all these years of model companies having problems getting licensing for UPS items Trainworx seems to have somehow figured them out!  Or maybe UPS has finally relaxed their licensing requirements? 

I know that there were few officially licensed UPS items made in N scale but nothing of this caliber (like day-cab tractors)!

Sigh... too new for me. I wish they had the old package logo.

Well I was up since 4am waiting for the email....      

Just kidding.  Say Carter, do you think other manufacturers will sit up and take notice of these models
and give us some modern construction vehicles, light trucks and cars?   Pretty happy of course with Trainworx and
Showcase these days of course, but we are so far behind in this area.

Isn't the story the latter - Pat just asked and there was suddenly no problem.
