Eric:  Thank you!  A lot like the C&O's, at least to my eye.  I can see why they decided to go with diesels instead.  I have a picture of the insides of the C&O version, and it's a real plumber's nightmare.

And it generated a huge amount of buzz here.  So somebody in their advertising department is smart.  :)

Craig Martin?

Craig Martin?

I thought he gave up BLMA to work on metal business cards, not join another model RR company.

He's consulting with Atlas for now on product development, and probably has a non-compete clause in the sale somewhere. We won't loose his expertise any time soon but I don't think he's with these guys.

If he was, I think they would have had an N scale car out already  :scared:

If the anticipation doesn't kill you, the cholesterol will...  :D

And real bacon in the tender? Now that would beat sound.

The most realistic response I read in here.

I don't think that whatever it is will be a game changer.......  Imagine what it would be like if every time you turned up a throttle, the engine just moved.  Every time.  No excuses.

Jeez, I would be happy if my computer could do that! Electronics = gremlins, in n scale or full size appliances etc. The more complicated the electronics, the more gremlins live in it!  ;) ;) ;)

Actually, now you're talkin'!  I mean the part about the meat reefer.  A General American-style steel meat reefer would be a game changer!

Don't worry, we'll find something to complain about discuss.  But only after the model is released.  :trollface:  :D
