Scroll down a little to the announcement that they will make a product announcement...

So, what is the "terribly kept secret"?  I figure they already announced that they would announce the Turbotrain someday. But is it that, or something else?

And what is the most awaited piece of N scale rolling stock?

From Jayson and gang:
ATSF / Amtk Pullman Standard 44 seat leg rest coach... of coarse.

Too late for me- I have 7 sets of sides for them.  But that would be a great car for them to do.

[OldEastRR]

More probable is an N version of their HO NH fluted-side car. All the draftwork/designs is done for that.
Again, something I'll wind up buying a bunch of ....but not as many as the Osgood Bradleys.

[thomasjmdavis]

Maybe that NP boxcar they are doing in HO?

If you are joking I will be annoyed and disappointed.   Lol

They are doing a 53' well car in HO....

[Missaberoad]

53' NSC well car CP Van or 3880cuft cylindrical hopper is my guess...

Hopefully not the Gunderson car they are doing in HO...

A Fowler patent boxcar would get my juices going... We need more non USRA single sheathed cars in N scale...

I was disappointed to see that there was no update on the baggage cars.

Ok, so they say:

N scale model #1 is a terribly-kept secret
N scale model #2 is a long-sought-after piece of rolling stock

I'll check back on June 26.

53' well car?  No, nope, no way, not going to get hopes up again.. regardless of how long-sought-after that car is 

[sirenwerks]

The FA2, RDC, and new look bus  would be my druthers; with the 3800 cf covered hopper running up after a nap.

[lock4244]

Putting my money on the 3800cuft and the Angus van.

Or the Canadian and the Turbo.

Or the C40-8M and the wellcar.

Or the LRC and the FA-2.

I actually bumped into the entire Rapido gang (except Jason) out foaming at Newtonville this past weekend. Was told that I'd be "pretty happy" with the N scale announcements, but nothing more... even after hours of torture, nothing specific.

Bingo!
