IT'S TRUE! IT"S TRUE!

N-Scale "Starter Series" MP36PH and Bi-Level Commuter Cars and Sets - KATO USA : Precision Railroad Models

 

It's a real shame that their cars are going to be Nippon Sharyo-built Gallery Bi-Level cars.

If they had chosen Budd-built bi-level cars owned by CB&Q, I would have placed my order TODAY.

Well, Kato's decision saves me money. So hey, no sweat.

 

But we've had both the Budds and Pullmans for over a decade.
Both ready to super detail to you satisfaction.

 

If not mistaken I remember a Thread recently asking who would be nice enough to make this loco; well I guess some of you got your wish.Kato.
Happy Railroading:tb-cool:

 

Amazing that it was the company we figured that wouldn't do it. Especially, since they have released the F40 twice without either of the RTA or Metra paint schemes. Now if we can get someone to build the F40 Winnebago.

 

God, how I miss that woman.

 

Do you mean the Con-Cor models? I am not such a big fan of Con-Cor.

 

I was referring to Madeline Kahn from Blazing Saddles.

 

Madeline Kahn, yup, Blazing Saddles, no?

 

Besides ConCor, there is Wheels of Time and Look Models. If you want to go hunting you could find NGI brass kits.Union Station makes laser cut lexan kits as well. Union Station Products

When modeling rare trains you got to go with whats already made or hold your complaints to yourself.

If all else fails get yourself a 3D printer and make your own. Then sell them to us fools who will buy them. For what I paid for my Metra F40 and two Nippon coaches I could of bought Three Metra starter sets, but I couldn't wait the five years for a product I didn't think was coming.

 

I'm going to paing the MP36s silver and decal the locomotives and the cars for the CB&Q. Then I'm going to paint a set for VRE.

then what if you find that kato is releasing the VRE?
so many possibilities, im sure in due time kato will

 

would be nice if someone would produce the Bombardier bi-level cars used in some systems...Caltrain's newer sets come to mind

 

you mean the ones athearn has produced and the ones they will release this fall (in caltrain)?
