DECEMBER!!!??? All of them!!!??? I need several of each. Thats like 12-15 locomotives to be purchased all at once. I sure hope that they space out the releases of each model as these are sure to sell out and I, and many others can't afford that many locomotives all in one shot. Brian
BEWARE!!!! Because of the way the German market works, my friend at All-American Trains must invent roadnames, catalog numbers, etc.. to put on his website. Do not take anything from All-American Trains as being accurate...... most of the time he makes up his own release information. On occassion the Europeans have leaked info early because of their market; but most of the manufacturers are wise to sharing info with them knowing they will broadcast it before the intended announcement date. If Marty, Bob, Matt or Frank don't provide the info on future Intermountain releases, don't think that All-American has a scoop!!! BTW, BLW and others copy All-American shamelessly, so until you see it on the manufacturer's website, don't believe it!!! Charlie
Charlie Reposted in part from my post on the Atlas N Forum Aug 6th ======== If we were to wait on Intermountain to update their website, we would all be grumpy old men -- they still have only a photo of EMC 103 (GM Demonstrator) posted, yet all the major dealers now list prices, stock numbers, paint schemes, etc. And nothing about these new locos. FYI, I-M does have a teaser ad for the 3 new locos on page 33 of the Sep 2002 MR. Also, FYI, today Mr. Hartmann from AAT emailed me the 3 Tunnel Motor/ SD45-2 flyers that he picked up from I-M. They were handing them out to the public at the NMRA National Convention in Ft. Lauderdale last month. It confirms all the information on roadnames as posted above. As AAT noted in their post, stock numbers are subject to change. eNjoy
SD 45-2's in Santa Fe Blue and Yellow, I WANT THAT! [ 06. August 2002, 23:49: Message edited by: Maxwell Plant ]
Well, I found the answer to my own query: Yes, these engines will be DCC-friendly. A person scanned and posted the flyers that I-M was handing out at the show. One of the flyers says in no uncertain terms, that they will be DCC-ready! Great news! ...now, where do I come up with the money for these?
