MrMuffin'sTrainsMrMuffin'sTrainsOGR Forum Member DIGITAL SUBSCRIBERFORUM SPONSOR

I came in today to get somethings done - and before long there's a guy wanting to unload some pallets for us - we got all of these pieces in! We have some extras, so if you'd like one or three - we would appreciate your orders! For the covered hoppers, four road numbers are available per road name, except for Chessie System and International Minerals & Chemicals which have two. For the Coil Cars and the cabeese, 2 road numbers are available per road name.....

Great!
 
I was counting on the Rio Grande f-7's!  Now I guess I'll be pulling my completed California Zephyr with a BNSF ES44AC

I asked at York, too, and was told April-ish.  Told that to Mr. Muffin, who was surprised, and indicated he was told January/February.

 

No one is willing to commit to anything.

 

Other than the 2nd run of GGD El Capitans, which I was told in about a year.  That I believe.

Absolutely agree.  The F7's are currently showing an ETA of 4Q2015.  If they arrive in January, that will pretty much be on-target.  And Atlas-O's track record just doesn't support that kind of delivery.  

 

When I hear folks talking April-ish, I immediately conclude that's wishful thinking if and only if EVERYTHING goes as planned.  We know that seldom happens, which is why I'm thinking June 2016 at the earliest.  In fact, one dealer even mentioned that date as "somewhat realistic" to me.  And a 6-month slippage for Atlas-O locomotive production/delivery would still be viewed as "pretty good" and a step in the right direction by many folks here, myself included.

 

Managing expectations is everything these days.  That's just the way it is.

As recently as Monday, I was told that it would be January..... Pretty much all sold out at Atlas..... I've taken them down for additional orders on my website until they get here..... I ordered some extras - so we will see what's still available when they get here..... Thanks
