We got a few additional RS-1's from Atlas O today. I'd love to get another GM&O if anybody sees an extra out there someplace..... Atlas didn't end up making as many as they expected so a number of dealers didn't get all that they wanted.....
We still have both numbers in PRR AO-6875-3 and AO-6875-4; The Santa Fe #2395 AO-6876-4; and a couple of the Minn & St Louis #233 AO-3013202-2.... We're offering these at $439.96 with free shipping.....
Thanks!

The NYSW Bi-Centennial scheme was based on a photograph Jim Weaver had taken of the real deal when he was a kid. Atlas went ahead and made it in HO. It was disappointing that they couldn't get the orders to do it this time. Maybe a special run is in order. I know they didn't have the parts to make all that were ordered the way it was with the other schemes. Beautiful, diesels, IMHO, plus great runners. Very reliable.
After waiting five years for a RS-3, I'm hoping for a fall delivery.
Atlas RS-3 originally announced June 2010
Still scheduled for Fall - Atlas is firming up the remaining production for this year...
PS - These are the other RS-3's that will be shipping......

Beautiful engines!
Unless Atlas cancels this run for lack of reservations as they recently did the SW series switchers.

Disappointing for sure. I was told that they will make them again and add some more popular road names. The announced ones didn't hit it off with the hobbyists. We had 19 on order. Mostly Indiana Harbor Belt and Raritan River.
I think we're good on the RS-3 but they need to be working on the Fs! We have over 300 of those coming!
Thanks for the update!! Great dealer to do business with!
