Scheduled Atlas Arrivals

Are the Morriston & Erie hoppers on the web site?  I can't seem to find them.  NEVERMIND I FOUND THEM

I noticed on your special runs you’re going to be doing a Texaco 8000 gallon tank car and a Erie 55ton 2 bay hopper when do you feel these will be delivered, thanks 

I'm trying to get Atlas to put these cars on the front burner, but there have been a lot of road blocks. I would do them with MTH, but they dont have a hopper car or rivited tank car thats highly detailed.  Some of the MTH stuff is great...just those 2 mth cars are old designs, from before the concentration on detailing.  The Lionel GLa hopper car is nice, but more difficult to deal with them, no 2 rail, and price would be about the same as Atlas anyway.

I'd say if I can get them done within a year, that would be good, tbh.  Wish the process was easier/smoother, and didnt require all the money up front.

Beth,

Thank you for the updates on this site,it's VERY HELPFUL AND ENCOURAGING.

Are the 4427 cvd hoppers from Atlas,the ones that have  CSX,Conrail,BNSF and Santa Fe cars in? Do these cars come in 4 roadnumbers?

How about the 4750 hoppers? Is Atlas ever going to do any new roadnames or release new car numbers in existing roadnames like CSX? Atlas needs to offer more roadnumbers for their cars,IMO. Has anyone at Atlas ever mentioned these cars?

Thank you.

The PS 4427's announce a year ago are not in yet.  Pipeline on these was kicked back due to Atlas changing factories.

The PS4750's....Im sure they will do more.   There are a lot of road names they havent done yet, and doing more CSX and NS would be a good idea.
