Just submitted a reservation for the DEMO version in 3-rail. 

Has there been a change in the E1 A/B? Web site now shows August 2022?

Whoops.. just got the News letter from 3rd rail .. August it is 🙂

3rd Rail E5/E6 Project Reservations are now Closed. You can still put in a Stand-By reservation. That means if we can increase the production quantity or some customers cancel early we can get you the model you reserved. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

I will be sending the motors and electronics needed for the project Monday and that settles the maximum quantity we can produce for this project.

Thank you all for your support and continuing to order from us.

@TrainBub.  Might be a good time to edit the title of this thread to something like

“…..Run 2 Reservations closed May 5, 2022,  Standby Available.”

Yeay!! NOW BRING ON THE SDP40F'S and the FP7's!

Question for those who purchased the 1st run Seaboard Citrus E6A -- is there a "named train" name on either side of the engine e.g. Silver Meteor or Orange Blossom Special?

Any chance of another Powhatan Arrow set?

I second that and the congressional—

I can go for the Powhatan Arrow!!!

I believe the Seaboard 1st run production picture is on the the 3rd Rail web page. I see no name on the Citrus scheme model.  Should there be ? What is prototypical ? Direct questions / comments / directly to Scott.
