Atlas second half of 2017 catalog?

Has any one seen this yet?  It is not to be found on their web yet.  I am wondering what the 2 new locos are going to be.  Probably the GP-39-2 is one of the two.

I think they're only doing the monthly release newsletters now.

They aren't doing it anymore. Check their website for details.

For the time being, we are not doing the six month catalog.  We are focusing our manpower on getting new products completed, and it gives us the opportunity to be more up to date with our announcements, scheduling and getting costing from the factory.

The GP39-2 is one of the two sound equipped units we are hoping to have announced by the end of the year.  We are trying to at least have test shots of the second one for Trainfest.

Does this mean that the 70 ton friction bearing trucks from the Hart ballast cars will be available as a separate part?

So is the first loco the early phase GP39-2 and the second loco the late phase? Or is a whole new locomotive besides the GP39-2 and it's phases going to be produced?

If its a whole new model that gets sound I hope it wil be the GP7/9 models. I think this would make sense. This would give them more options for future releases.  :D

If it was an existing model, they probably wouldn't be waiting for test shots!

So, something not previously made(by Atlas) is my guess...

Baby steps...

I'll see if we can get that going soon.

The GP39-2 in various phases is one loco.

The second loco is new, not related to the GP39-2.
