What are you buying this Month?

[Len Turner]

June's acquisitions...

 

[NorthTexasRailroad]

I want some too!!! Who's the manufacturer?

Paul,
They're Walthers Mainline. I found a hobby store in Canada (The Scuderia 46) that had some. Couldn't believe that I'd find any other than used.

Thanks. That site still has some available. I have a preordered locomotive coming soon which will blow my budget for the month so hopefully they’ll be around for a while

I love that Burlington O-3 and the BRE refer! Hope getting the F3A & B running isn't too much hasstle.

A couple items for July came a few days early yesterday afternoon. These will make the 60' high cube boxcar fleet a bit bigger. Glad to find them new.

I thought that site's price was a little high for Walthers Mainline. Pretty close to Proto

I find Canada pricing on par with the US, postage is also a big factor for me, the bonus of course, Canada ships to the UK via the Atlantic Ocean, not the bloody Pacific, and usually takes 10 to 14 days to arrive on my doorstep, and not 10 days bouncing around various USPS depots before it gets anywhere near a plane.

(Those seats I ordered from the US left Singapore on the 26th, whereabouts currently unknown)

Being a US government run organization, I expect nothing less from them!

Model Power have something similar.

Or BLI

If this sounds familiar it's because I posted about this about a year ago when this preorder was originally expected.

https://www.athearn.com/product/ho-gp15-1-locomotive-conrail-operation-lifesaver-1662/ATHG13240.html

Notice the website says next shipment is in November now But the Athearn model # is different from the one I ordered so I emailed them for clarification

I hope it comes in this month. I like it because I model more modern times and this old GP 15 has been "updated" with front and rear ditch lights!

 

[traiNscale]

@Smudge617 the modelpower one looks pretty bad if you ask me the BLI looks nice, i already have a BLI CN but N scale. but i cant find for CN in H0 or a NS one

That Model Power is obviously an old production. It's an SW1, you can easily tell by the "step" in front of the hood, as well as in front of the cabin. If i remember correctly the real SW1 models were in production since about 1939, a little before the start of WW II.

Yes, it's an old model, sorry.
