Sked arrivals from Atlas O... 20' intermodal containers arriving end of Sept. APL, Cosco, MSC, OOCL, Hapag, Fesco.
Atlas O Arriving end of Oct...40' Pulpwood Flat cars, H21a Hopper cars, 50' ACF box cars. This stuff is all on the water right now.
As you all probably know...Atlas is looking for a new production factory for freight cars and engines. (track and building kits are made at a different factory, and will remain the same) . The good news is that hopefully this will keep prices down. The old factory had just increased prices 20% on everything, and it was getting out of hand.
Lionel...OK I know ppl generally come to us for Atlas and Weaver, but we are getting more full scale Lionel now, since they are making more of the Weaver cars. (Carrying the Lionel full scale cars, and the Lionscale). We avoided Lionel for a long time cause of the pricing issues, with the "Big 5" getting better pricing than everyone else. The playing field still isnt completely level, but its better than it was.
Just arrived...SPFE 57' mechanical reefers. We sell all the former Weaver cars individually. Not everyone needs 6 PFE reefers. We have about a dozen different former Weaver cars made by Lionel here now. Exactly the same as the cars when they were made by Weaver, Trucks are just very slightly different, and the RB trucks have rotating bearing caps. I'm trying to get Diecast trucks that fit Weaver cars from Lionel or Atlas. Its like pulling teeth. Also the GLa hopper cars in PRR and Berwind are supposedly on their way.
MTH...Thank You to everyone who has discovered that we have MTH in stock. Mostly older stuff that is new in box. There's a couple hundred MTH premier freight cars here, and probably an equal amount of Railking. SLOWLY getting it up on the web.
Other notes....WE KEEP OUR WEBSITE UP TO DATE. Its not perfect, but pretty close. PLEASE, do not call asking if something on the web is in stock, if u can possibly help it. It just delays things. If its on the web, theres a 99% chance that its in stock. Occasionally something will be up on the web erroneously, but its pretty rare. If you want to call, the best days to reach us are Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.
Thanks! beth
