Country: USA | Posts: 605 CNW Posted - 2006 April 28 :  6:17:19 PM   Ouch, but I'll probably have to spring for a couple. I just LOVE that unit and the NW makes an appearance on my layout. I'll obviously go to a deep discounter to get mine though. ;> Rockford and Indiana Railroad - THE Chicago connection! Country: USA | Posts: 4785 Rockfan Posted - 2006 April 28 :  6:45:40 PM   Why go to a deep discounter? Buy it. Country: | Posts: 501 CNW Posted - 2006 April 28 :  7:14:17 PM   I will, through a deep discounter. Why pay more when I don't have to? I can get it right after release and at a price much lower than retail. If I don't have to pay retail I'm not going to. Rockford and Indiana Railroad - THE Chicago connection!

Country: | Posts: 501 cr4105 Posted - 2006 April 28 :  7:59:12 PM   No non-sound/DCC units? Ed H.

Face it, very few have cash "to waste"... Perhaps because he is so frugal, and has been in the past, he has the cash to buy them... And why just settle for two of them when you could find three for the same amount someplace else? - Curt Mc Country: USA | Posts: 5293 soo760 Posted - 2006 April 28 :  9:48:29 PM   Looks like some gaps in the stock numbers, am guessing that the non-sound units will appear soon. While they are at it, how about another run that includes SOO and MILW units, these were all gone fairly quickly from the first run. soo760 Country: USA | Posts: 78 RailThunder Posted - 2006 April 28 :  9:59:59 PM   I will go for a pair of the Southern units if offered in non-sound. RailThunder Modeling the Seaboard Coast Line (SCL) Tampa Division and Amtrak. We need a U36B and SDP40F.... Country: USA | Posts: 822 el3637 Posted - 2006 April 28 :  10:11:10 PM     I had a feeling this might happen. At least I have the domain gp30.com! I have a feeling they might even get the details right. These units are very well photographed, the N&W are all one phase with only minor alterations (winterized windows, horn moved) over the life. They could very well beat out the existing nominees for the best N&W diesel ever done in plastic - out of the box. Which is pretty much a toss-up between the Atlas GP40, and the SD35 in 13dip black (not the hamburger).

The American Dollar contiues to drop. Every new issue will offer 'improvrments'- LED headlights for example. Increased cost of fuel affects everything, incliding your commute. Ditributor ownership will shore up their customer base - Dealer margins. More States will impose sales taxes on mail order.
