    I saw the kit last night on the On30 Conspiracy site. The only thing I did not see was the price. I will be e-mailing in regard to that today and can post that here if anyone is intersted.

    I posted that link, as it loads photos directly.

    I saw prices. But they did not seem to be exact numbers quoted. Wish he had a stateside distributor. His web site is nice. But my German is decades ago. And sketchy these days at best.

    :sad:

    That is a nice looking caboose. Personal preference would be to use Bachmann trucks but even with what he has under it looks cool.

    Anyone have a sample of each truck style? BVM and Bachmann? A side by side view would be interesting.

    :D

    I don't have both handy but I do know the Bachmann trucks are a bit longer.

    OK guys got the scoop from the kit producer. The kit will be available at the end of next week. Cost without trucks is Eur 36.20 (ca. $45.00 US). The cupola is sold separately @ Eur. 6.90 (ca. $8.60 US). Airmail shipping is Eur. 8.00 (ca. 10.00 US). I will likely be ordering one of these.
