Just FYI, projects still in the pipeline will be finished. This one is well down in the colon at this point and time.

Good to hear from you. I hope its "birth",is not too painful.

I was waiting to hear back from my "associates" before confirming anything was still in the works.

New article from Gary: https://train-simulator.com/a-brute-of-a-diesel/

Judging by the RoadRailers they appear to be brand-new compared to the RCAP ones

Very nice article. It looks like we will be getting a nice selection of rolling stock along with another great locomotive. !*cheers*!

I just got and looks like you can only run it long hood forward which may be prototypical but I read somewhere that NS ran them both way sometimes. It looks and sounds beautiful. Off to read the manual.

The one thing that is beyond me is how this engine was designed with a nice low hood yet NS decided to throw logic out the window and run it LHF... Don't get me wrong its kind of cool and definitely is a factor in wanting the model but still not the most practical for a long haul machine.

A few years ago Jerry sent me a locomotive to test that had duel throttle controls. Ran and operated fantastic. Don't think it ever made production.
