Very nice. I built my two P&W units, but it's good to see these run again.

Any ideas as what is coming next?

Good to see these re-run again; for those who have yet to build our kits, the upgrade from cast to printed shells is worth considering.

Having built a cast M420 and a printed GP40-2LW, both are good kits, but the printed one was a pleasure to build. The kits are so much fun, that I have built everything that I can justify being on my Boston Line. I really hope to see more in the future. Especially a CF-7, NW-5, MP15AC and other oddball engines.

I picked up a set of printed M-420 kits today; they look great.  looking forward to their assembly at some point.
