    Hi All,
    Several months ago I ordered three Alco 636 locos from Lowell Smith. I was told that they would be delivered by the end of 2017. I have not seen or heard anything of them. I’ve also been charged for them. I have tried to contact Lowell several times to no avail.
    Has anyone received theirs’?

    Maybe I am wrong but there are no current production N scale Alco 636s on the market. The only ones produced were by Concor years ago. However there was a guy producing shells to make your on using current mechanisms and trucks. http://www.cescalemodels.com/

    You're spot on John.
    I just now received a response from Lowell stating that the delay is on Atlas' end. Unfortunately there are no updates.

    Patience is a virtue, catch it if you can.

    Glad you had a response. It did not seem to be their way, to fail in sending a reply. (y)
