Still available! Go to our website to get an order form.
77 cars already sold out of 200. I'm thinking these will sell out before too long. 
Looking forward to getting my set!
As of last Saturday, there are 33 cars left for sale of the 200 being made. If you are still thinking about it, they won't last very long, especially with the mention in OGR. Lionel will be starting production shortly, so we should have them by the end of December.
Not a suprise, these are great looking and something unique in O Gauge.
Lionel has completed production and notified me that the cars have just been shipped. 
Hopefully we will get them in the next few days and get them organized for reshipment by the following weekend.
There are still a few cars left for sale, so if you weren't sure that it was going to happen....you still have a chance to get one.
Lionel was nice enough to share some production pics...

Me too! But it will take a bit to match up the cars with the orders.
Like the production photos also, especially the mystery boxcar that's in 2 of the photos.
Glad to see that it's "Made in USA."

Do they print on the ends of the Boxcars?

We were hoping that the cars would have arrived today, since they were shipped a week ago, but no joy. Maybe Tuesday?
I believe the dino cars are another custom order.
Are these still available for order?

Yes, go to our website and download an order form. There are several of the black diamond cars left, but the red diamond cars are gone. The website link is below with my signature. Thanks!
Did you guys receive them from Lionel yet?
Basil posted:Did you guys receive them from Lionel yet?
No, hope they didn't get lost in the snowstorms! I'm sending Lionel an email asking if they have a tracking number. I had expected them last Friday.
That's troubling considering they shipped them, or at least advised you they shipped them, coming up on two weeks ago.
The cars have been located. Arrived last evening in a snow storm. The member that received them was experiencing an email outage and did not realize that until this morning. The cars will now be sorted and prepared for shipment.
HURRAH!!
Any further update? Have items shipped?
I should have some additional information this weekend. The NMRRC is a volunteer organization, cars will ship when they are inspected and processed. I can tell you the weather has been brutal!
Boy do I know that! I live on Lake Michigan in Wisconsin. Not only jabe we experienced the cold, but I've watched the massive clouds form over there lake as they head east, filled with snow, I'm sure!
Thanks for the update!
The LS&I boxcar I ordered arrived today. It looks really nice. Living in northeastern Wisconsin, I'm mostly interested in Milwaukee Road, Soo, CNW. The upper peninsula of Michigan is really beautiful, so I'm really glad I ordered one. Nice job to the NMRRC.org (Northern Michigan Railroad Club). Look forward to to seeing what the next offering will be.

My U.S. Postal Carrier brought it today. When I got home from Home Depot getting model train supplies my two grandchildren were at the side door yelling. Grandpa you have a train package. So off to the train room we went.
How cool: Gary

Exciting news! Looking forward to mine!
Robbie, I'm in Manitowoc! Have you ever checked out NEW O Gaugers club? The clubhouse is in Forrest Junction. We are having an open house February 3 & 4, 9 am to 4 pm. I'll be there Saturday, for sure. Check us out at www.newogaugers.org.
Yes! I am familiar with the N.E.W O gaugers. I always stop by to to chat with them and check out the modular layout at the Green Bay Train show in April. I will check it it out again. Hopefully I will stop by the club when I get a chance. Thanks! Enjoy the LS&I boxcar, neat railroad for sure.
No doubt they came out great. Was fun being part of the project with John and the whole NMRRC gang.

You'll have to visit the website and download an order form or submit a contact form requesting what's left. I don't have that information.
Mine arrived yesterday, and they are very nice! Thanks for making these available.

We have some of the black diamond cars left. The red diamond cars are gone. Get the order form at our website. Thanks!!!
Received mine yesterday, nice car.
Mine arrived today! Beautiful car. I love the texture of the paint. Looking forward to putting it in service.
So glad that you guys like the cars!!! It was fun, and challenging to do them. We have already planning what we will do for the next two years. 
Dropped a check in the mail the other day for one. Look forward to getting it within the next week or two! Glad I saw this post or I would've never have known about them.
