Hi Gang, Something that Rob Kluz did not point out: These are limted production sets. Only 40x of each 4-pack and 40x of each single car have been produced! Rob tells me that we are already sold out of some of these items, so please contact your dealer ASAP if you are interested. Best, -Rob(A)
Man, what were you thinking ? I hope you made more tank cars, 'cause I may have bought up a quarter of that allocation ! .
The tank car runs are larger (80x units of each SKU) but we are doing shorter runs to control inventory. We have had larger runs in the past, but we wound up sitting on too much inventory. This may result in some temporary shortages in the future, but we will re-order more supply (with new road numbers) as needed. Production lead time on the hoppers is shorter than the tank cars or autoracks. Best, -Rob(A)
It's hard to imagine they won't do another run of these same cars, given a) how quickly they sold out and b) see a). I'm disappointed I missed out on the Union Pacific car - that's what I get for not reading these forums every day. bob
