Any guesses: Kato NW-2

Any guesses as to what roadname Kato will release next for the NW-2? I have one of the Milwaukee Road ones and one of the SP units. These are solid little locomotives, and I am quite impressed with many aspects of the design.

Let me see. We've had:

ATSF
CB&Q
Chessie
Southern Pacific
Union Pacific
Pennsylvania RR
Milwaukee Road

(I hope I am not leaving anyone out.)



I would love to see what they come out with next.

 

ACL obviously.

I can dream, can't I?

 

How about a Great Northern in BSB.

 

NYC or Northern Pacific

 

I vote for the NYC!!!!!

 

Northern Pacific please.

 

I know Santa Fe's already been done in blue, but how about zebra stripes please.

Zebra stripes would have been the logical ATSF scheme for Kato to do first as the blue scheme doesn't belong in the same era as the Kato Super Chief.

 

Rio Grande
#100 or #7000
Or any variation of the two, which were one and the same.

 

Kato NW-2

Wou;ld love to see a Monon. I know is dreaming but anyone can dream.

 

BN green please!

 

Geez, youse guys are good guessers

Here's what a little birdie told me will be coming soon for the NW2's

Union Pacific (Black & Yellow, as delivered 'Route of the Streamliners) 2 numbers
Rio Grande (Black & Orange "Pampered Pet") 2 numbers
Santa Fe (Black & Silver for the Zebra fans) 2 numbers
Santa Fe (Blue & Yellow warbonnet) 2 numbers
Southern Pacific (Grey & Scarlet) 2 numbers
Conrail (Blue & White) 2 numbers
Burlington Northern (Green & White) 2 numbers

I have no idea when these will be released or in what order, my advice is to start saving now.

At the rate Kato have been releasing them so far they should get through these in about two years.

 

I started thinking, that I'd have to get
a couple of UP, so I could repaint into Rio Grande.

 

I'm a UP buff, so this one would be my choice. They released this in HO I believe. When the first UPs were released in yellow/gray, which was my first choice, I had thought the black/yellow would have been the first chronologically. I was not disappointed though.

 

I vote for NP, of corse. I would buy probally 2 of those.

 

I hope one of them is an ATSF, Zebra.

I would like to see a SP Tiger Stripe...if anyone is listening.

 

They already did SP tiger stripe. You can pick them up still at several of the TB vendors.

 

Ahh, when, where, I can what?

Where was I?

Thanks SteamDonkey74 for the heads up.
