Maybe I was the last to know about this, but:
I just reserved one. Let's hope that I'm not alone. Same price as the nice T-2 electric from recent history. Command, cruise, etc.
Been wanting this one for a while.

Thanks D,
If I hadn't seen your post I would have missed out. I just ordered one.

Bill -
Glad to hear it. I ordered the black version.
Sometimes I wonder about 3rd Rail's marketing; low-profile to the max, it seems to me.
I hope enough of us order one - don't make me build (that is, approximate) one!
I guess that I'll have to check their site more often - maybe the cancelled NYC H-10 Mike and C&O Hudson will re-appear one day.
I ordered the black also. I hope they get enough orders to build. Maybe the next one could be this,

The first time the R-2 was announced was at the 2 rail meet in Strasburg, PA in August.
I have not been to any shows between then and York to promote it. The website was only recently updated to show the R-2.
I attend about eight 2 rail shows per year to promote Sunset / Golden Gate products and we are always at both Eastern Division TCA York meets.
Sunset / GGD has prominent advertising in several O scale/gauge related magazines as well as at least one electronic magazine geared to the 2 rail market.
We attempt to promote reviewing the website as it is frequently updated. Scott is working with OGR on methods to provide additional marketing.
Sunset is certainly open to suggestions you may have to increase the marketing profile.
