For Atlas: Any Updates on the Remaining GP38-2's?
« on: May 16, 2016, 10:10:09 AM »

Greetings,

This is for the good folks at Atlas or for anyone else that has any updated information.  Are there any projections on when the remaining GP38-2's will be delivered?  Specifically looking for the Conrail and MoPac versions.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Brian

I've never met a covered hopper I didn't like.... :)

They're on the slow boat back to us right now. Should see them by the middle of next month.

Already have them, just need something to put them on....   :)

If you have an Atlas GP35, a fan hatch from an Atlas GP38, some Blomberg M trucks, etc, there's a nice picture of a MP GP28 right there... :D

Is the fan hatch a winterization hatch? If so I have one from a Walthers GP38 I don't need... (its SF blue as well so good base coat :D)

The fan hatch is the riveted plate that the radiator fans are attached to.   Here's a pic of Plano's GP38 fan hatch, which is only available in HO:
