Tigerman: I have had a Santa Fe set on order since February. Everything I have read about them sounds real good. These Genesis units will replace some old Athearn Warbonnets.

Tigerman, I don't have the Genisis F-7's, but I do have the Intermountains, and they are sweet! You might want to compare them side by side if you can. Pete
You might have already heard this, but the Genesis Warbonnet F7s have been delayed until sometime early next year. In their place a run of Genesis Phase 1 F3s will be offered painted up in Warbonnet. The F3 Warbonnet photos on Athearn's website look to be versions of the Phase 1s as they appeared from the early 1950s to the late 1950s.
<font color="336633">I asked my dealer (LSWR Models) when the next batch of Genisis F units was out, he asked what paint scheam I wanted, I said I dont mind as it will be repainted into Burlington Northern anyway..... so he told me that he wont sell me any as its not allowed to repaint ATSF ones Hmmmmmmmm I supose I could just lie.... </font>
