    I second the Tender Trucks, and make them a regular product! I will buy 20 pairs to start, as I can use them for Swing Motion Caboose Trucks, and nobody could see the difference! I want to light up my cabooses! :D

    I rarely will say I'll buy that. But tender trucks? I'll buy 3 pair for sure.

    I don't suppose anyone would want to speculate on the roadnames, would they?

    I am with you Chris. It makes no difference to me with this release what the roadnames are. This one I want.

    I haven't just wanted a loco in a while. This should be fun.

    My preference would be obvious. ;-) But the ol' "DIAR" is a decent second choice.

    It's still possible, but I wrote that before I started testing the units. After a few days, I asked for some engineering changes: Not enough down force on the front pilot and some tender modifications.

    Goofy reply........If you don't want those less than perfect models, you can drop them off at my place.

    Serious reply......Will the heavy and light be released at the same time?

    I'm happy to wait, as long as it's to make the model a great runner! :)

    I hope they don't cancel the whole order like the first GP30's !

    Thanks for the update Rob. I appreciate the fact that you take the time to keep us informed.

    If you drop them off with Chris, there is a good chance he will fix em anyway! ha! :D

    We are getting close. In the final tuning stage with running gear and also doing modifications to the leading and trailing truck. We are hoping for a summer release.
