    Was at Chuck's http://www.featherrivertrains.com shop today and picked up these beauties from Classic Metal Works! I had always thought their stuff was nice but a bit too old fashioned for me, but these will certainly pass on my modern layout! Check out the window trim and the fine printing! Bravo, CMW!! :D [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Those really are nice. I am going to have to get one or two. I wish that JT was here to see that!

    Happy railroading!

    Too bad I model 1951. They look great.

    Now, if only they'd do a set of late 60s muscle cars for my 1970s layout...

    I bought those with the Athearn fire trucks in mind. Now I need to build a fire station. [​IMG]

    CMW vehicles for the summer of 2006

    I just noticed that CMW has some pix for their latest round of trucks in N scale.

    The site also mentioned that they've got 'something' really big in the works... in HO and N scale it think???

    The HO catalogue indicated tandem trailers... but no pix.

    oh Man!

    Well I see a couple right off the top (literally) that I can use. Mini Metals have truly been a blessing to N scale.

    Hmmmm....

    None of the e-tailers have these items on their website for reservation. I realize that these are not the type of items we might be anxious to reserve... but... usually the e-tailers have them on their site anyway. Perhaps this is a very recent update of the CMW site and the vendors haven't received part numbers yet. I think that the REA tractor/trailer will be a quick sell-out... definately one I'll be getting. The Coles Express looks good too. Gotta have some Falstaff beer as well.
