The RailKing line needs a model of the ACF Center Flow 4600 Cu. Ft. 3-bay hopper and the Greenbrier 5188 Cu. Ft. 3-bay covered hopper.

The A&P Grocery Billboard looks appealing.

. Did notice that the "scale" modern dwarf signal got recataloged, along with some other accessories that weren't in the last one. The one glaring error I found was the subway entrance labeled for Vernon-Jackson ave. There is no such entrance on the #7 line. Vernon-Jackson IS a stop on the 7 line, but it's an elevated stop, not an underground one. The other entrance labeled for Main Street- Flushing is correct, as the terminal stop of the 7 line IS underground. just my pet peeve.
Vernon Jackson is elevated? Please provide a photo I would like to see it.
Thanks

I hope that everybody will pre-order that specific version of the Missabe DM&IR ore car with the arrow scheme. Do not wait until they are delivered to get one, because they will be sold out.

"Eggnog Yellow" if I'm not mistaken. Almost "Bile" with with a little less yellow...
PS: I'm likely in for an NS ES44 set; I've been partial to scale diesels as of late, but I like these RK Imperial diesels specifically because of the detail, and because of the fact that I can consists a couple of them together on my layout with it looking strange. There's nothing quite like two or three scale ES44/SD70's pulling 5 boxcars...
I agree, it is not very Christmas looking, it would take a lot of egg nog to get me to like it. If it was a Christmas Color I buy it in a heartbeat with the blinking red and green lights.
MTH please change the color, to White, blue, green, red, or silver.
Wow I didn't think Locosounds were still being sold. But the UP 2-8-0 set lists both Proto3 and a Locosound version.
Hasn't it been several years since they shipped Locosound models?

Ratpak-- My apologies- Vernon jackson is an underground station. For some reason, I remembered it being an elevated station. having not lived in NY since 1978, the fog of long ago memories got me.
I recommended those stops to MTH as I spent alot of time on the 7. We did have some family members that lived just off Vernon Jackson through the mid 60's , that was the only reason I suggested the stop. If they still lived in that neighborhood today they would all be millionaires.

No apology necessary.
I am surprised no one has mentioned the pennsylvania boxcar with blinking LEDs in polar express colors. MTH even touts it as a compliment to your Polar set.
