    Atlas will be producing a special run, commissioned by Scott Fortier and the "Northeast N-scalers" of
    The Boston & Maine GP9 "Bluebird".

    I've waited a looooong time for these and we're finally going to get them.
    The idea for this project originated at this year's Springfield Show after Scott, Jon and I talked to Cory.

    I ordered a pair......Thanks for getting
    these done. :cool: Kudos to everyone involved in the project! [​IMG]

    Perhaps with the success of this venture,
    Atlas will consider running an N Scale version of the B&M Geep they did in HO? [​IMG]

    I'd buy those too! [​IMG]

    Now all they need are the orange step wells and chipped paint :D All kidding aside that was the best blue paint scheme they had, lot better that Guilford Gray.

    Hmm, It is nice looking, I should get one just to support the idea but I don't know if I can justify it.

    Hoping to resurrect this old post ...
    I just saw a couple of these NEN GP9s pop-up on eBay, and a shell sold last week. I never knew they existed. The NEN website seems stale. Are these guys around to push for another run? Judging from the prices the poor-running Bluebird LL GP-18s go for on eBay, there's plenty of demand for Bluebird-painted B&M locos.
