Has anybody recieved one of these engines from Overland yet? I have heard the KCS units are in demand[I believe only 15 were made]

I'm still waiting for my CN SD70M-2, I believe Mr. Marsh said he was waiting for more units to be paid in full until they're shipped, but don't quote me on that.

I think that paint scheme to be popular with those Atlas KCS black hoppers painted the same way. It would be an awesome train. If I had the bucks and was into KCS i'd be all over it
A friend went to this meet to pick up his order[5] from a midwest dealer, apparently not all units have arrived stateside.
Maybe the importer doesn't want to send piecemeal money and the manufacturer doesn't want ot ship partial abroad as the engines need to be shipped in larger units. Say lots of 50 or more. So one on this end waits for others to pay up to make up the shipment. Just my look at it. But at 2500$ and now I see another run at $2700+ the ouch level gets bigger.
