Any ideas what MTH's 2014 Vol 1 Catalog will bring?

I would settle for their newly retooled FM Train Master models in the FM demonstrator styling as well as the Southern Pacific "Black Widow" styling.

Yes, that was a fairly new retooled engine the FM Train Master or part of it.  I love to see some NEW NA engines not the same old ladies with a different dress on. Unless it is a 2-10 hippo with a long tender on it. Love to see 44 tonner, scale RDC cars, scale Crusader, #60000 demo that is in the Franklin institute, Some new Reading camelbacks.  Now am I holding my breath,  NOT.  All that said I am sure there is something in there that I need to have, always have. "Every time I try to get out they bring me back in"

Premier ES44DC.

I don't have clue the first, but I'd like to see:

• Some GP30's in Premier with the right fuel tanks and offered with scale wheels and fixed pilots.
• Another shot at doing the McKeen powered cars, hopefully in CNW livery.
• The EMC 1800HP BB Diesels -- ATSF livery. If they pull off the tooling right, they might be able to offer it in other road numbers.
• Full-scale passenger cars in Premier; 18-inch [former] Premier passenger cars moved to Rail King Imperial.

Just maybe a "FULL FEATURED" Premier Big Boy! 

 

And hoping for a high hood GP 30.

Honestly, I'd just like to see them deliver the little Climax loco that was catalog'd back in 2011.  Maybe 2014 will be the year!!!

I'm hoping to see a LIRR H-10s 

A scale crusader set would be cool

1) Trains

2) Accessories

3) Typos

4) Cheers

5) Jeers

6) Budgetary manipulations

A would love to see an LIRR H-10...an E6 Atlantic with the correct tender Would be great too.

LNER A4 pacific

Blue / Yellow Bonnet FP45

Red / Gray SP SD45

86' High Cube Boxcar

Corrugated Gondola or Railgon Style gondola.

I second that.

The cover was revealed in the back of the No. 1 Gauge catalog that was just posted last week. It has the NYC Dreyfuss Hudson on the cover. I saw that they announced a Railking version in the last book, so this one will probably be Premier.

What was wrong with the tender with the E-6 they did around 8 or 9 years ago? it looked correct to me

I'd go for one or two new Euro freight cars (i.e. new molds, not just new paint jobs). A steam era tanker or flat car would be nice, and a modern flat car. Now there are only two steam era and two modern basic freight car molds. 

 

And a GP-30 with Alco trucks as owned by Milwaukee Road, Soo Line, GM&O, and (anybody else? - those are the ones I know of).

 

And correct trucks on their cabooses, not the ugly and anachronistic T-section Bettendorfs they put on most of them. 

Sounds great!!

Pittsburgh Regional Allegheny Valley Railroad , Motive power

AVR EMD SD40-3, AVR / SWP EMD GP11

Not a ^%$% %^$# thing!!!! I'm up to my eyeballs in pre orders! I need a break!!! 

I would love to see a Railking Imperial LIRR Sunrise Special Set.

 

Sunrise

I would like to see a SP 4-6-2 Pacific with Vanderbilt Tender like #2472 at Niles Canyon.

You mean like the models that Sunset/3rd Rail produced about 3 years ago?

 

How about the GE Evolution Series BNSF ES44C4? That would be a first in O Scale!

Amen. I'm still waiting for the 2011 Blue Comets...

I second the scale 21" passenger cars!!!

'I (screw) NY'  boxcars.

Don't hold your breath on MTH ever producing 21" scale length passenger cars. That "notch market" is ideal for Sunset/3rd Rail/Golden Gate Depot. 

 

Besides, Andy and Rich have stated MANY times at shows over the last 8 to 10 years, that they, MTH, are NOT interested in that market since the tooling costs are too high and they could not sell enough 21" passenger cars to cover tooling, design, and manufacturing costs in their market.

For those who would like to see some British Profile engines, maybe in Railking..like a Single Wheeler.., Mike Wolf seems to believe, from research I would think, that the british market prefers Tinplate Style Trains.. Maybe Britain needs a big distributor like Busch to get british trains from MTH..

No Ideas.

 

They have still not made some paint schemes/road names for diesel locomotives such as the GP9, SD9, GP35, SD35, GP38-2, SD45, SD50, SD60.

 

There are many railroad schemes that have not gotten onto Premier freight cars and Intermodal containers & trailers.

Falcon Service

Modular Warehouse Building Fronts would be fantastic!

How about some premier New Haven Washboards and more

premier subway sets. 

Any ideas what MTH's 2014 Vol 1 Catalog will bring?

 

It will bring stuff available in 2017

Hopefully a Premier Nickel Plate Road 2-8-4 Berkshire No. 765 with ps3.0! I'm getting to ride this baby this weekend in coach #90, at The Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad in Brecksville, Ohio.

Don't know what will be in it, but I can bet what won't be in it, and that's any new tooling, just remakes of the same old stuff, but in PS-3 instead of PS-2.

I believe some Climax sets are scheduled for delivery next month.  I have one on order.

I'll take a pair of Central Vermont GP9s.  I prefer the green livery with the yellow CV noodles, please.

I would like to see a reissue of the PRR c-liners as well as the demo units too!

Beautiful paint job!

All the popular NYC steam and diesel in premier 2-3 rail with optional no traction tires.

Now that MTH has added a smoking whistle to a G guage engine, it would be nice if they started to add it to their premier engines. The smoking whistle looks really nice on there new G gauge engine.

They've had the smoking whistle on the G Gauge Triplex and I believe other G gauge steamers for some years now. I believe it was first shown at the 2007 (?) York meet and following catalogs offered it. Relatively old news and I doubt you'll see it in O Gauge soon.
