I was supposed to get a couple in the mail today, but I got a message that it'll be Monday, unless of course it gets moved to Des Moines or something (I wish that wasn't based on recent experience).I was in contact with Atlas over the CGW units when they were announced. Two of the road numbers they had were never painted in to the red/black scheme so they changed the numbers. Then to make thing more difficult, one of the units had a different size Lucky Strike.I actually don't know what I'm getting because the only pre-production models shown is #52 which is supposed to have the large LS, but is being sold with the smaller one. I'm assuming all the units released with have the smaller logo, which will be correct for the two numbers I ordered.Jason
Here is the 52 I picked up last week at the hobby shop, at a glance it appears to be the smaller. Comparing it to the images above it appears to be the smaller logo. The logo is a hair under an 1/8", so about 20" in N.

So kudoz to Atlas for being willing and able to produce an obscure RR like the CGW with a paint variation like this. I was so pleased I went ahead and ordered a #52.
