Where is the 1937 Budd Super Chief button?

I have a mind like a steel trap...a VERY rusty, old steel trap.

There is that Hudson, again.
Which ever side of the track I am on is the right side.

I couldn't find the button for the B&O Cincinnatian with a good Pacific.

But I voted anyway.

How many times does Kato need to be told to make the NYC Dreyfuss Hudson?

Now if the NYC included E7’s that would really rock!  I would be excited about any of the four sets. I am still wondering about the Rock Island Rocket!

If they do the Lark, hope it isn’t like their last sets, where they had dome cars, chair cars, etc. Except for the articulated diner/kitchen/lounge, it was Pullman sleepers. Even the observation car was 2-1-1, in front of the lounge.

I think the NYC 20th Century with the Dreyfuss Hudson would probably sell better, but I wouldn't mind seeing either set.  If Kato did the newer version, then we might finally get an E7.

Awesome! Kato finally listened  and (I hope) will produce the Dreyfus Hudson and the matching train.   No more looking for the ultra-rare (and priced accordingly) brass version of this unique and very pretty train.  Over the last 10 years or so I contacted them few times requesting that model.  I own a brass model of the Hudson but at the time I bought it (when it was new in the early 90s) I could not afford the entire train.

I just voted in the poll and it looks like my votes agree with the majority of the voters so far.

I also voted for the 50's version NYC in hopes of an E7.  I voted for the heavyweight Lark as well.  Kato heavyweights would be great.

I'm a steam guy through and through, but after being in NYC Hickory Creek this summer, the 1948 version would rock with e-units! But who says it has to be e-units? How about a Niagra?

Rock Island Rocket, followed by an E7 powered 20th Century Limited, please!
