MTH put pictures on their Facebook page of their soon to be released CN United Aircraft Turbo Train. Like the Amtrak/DOT demonstrator version, it looks pretty good. I have this version on preorder.

The more I see of this, the more I want one . . . beautiful.
WOW! nice job MTH. How much? Min Radius? Al
Minimum radius is O72. Price is $729.95 for a set at the Train Shop https://www.thetrainshop.com/c...mier/premier-engines
and $89.95 per additional car: https://www.thetrainshop.com/c...emier-passenger-cars
Other dealers like CT McCormick also have this price. On CT McCormick's page, look for the listing under MTH Premier specialty sets and passenger cars: http://www.cttrains.com/mth2.h...emier_Specialty_Sets
You would have to add five coaches and a cafe car to make a prototypical CN set and three coaches and a cafe car for a prototypical Penn Central set. I am hoping MTH comes out with a cafe car soon. Thinking about adding the Penn Central set to my preorder. I'm with you, Lee - the more I see of this the more I want the fastest production train to ever roam United States rails and likely to continue to hold the speed record for more than fifty years (until the California high speed rail system is up and running or improvements to the Northeast Corridor are completed).
