I've just tried the same thing. Gerry Country: United Kingdom | Posts: 198 davefoxx Posted - 04/10/2009 :  08:13:43     You're welcome, Gerry. I hope you get the road number that you're looking for, too. By the way, the checkout indicates no shipping and handling fee and states that an Atlas representative will contact you by telephone. Since I haven't heard from Atlas in a few days, I checked my credit card statement online and found that the order has been processed. The total order is $23.00, meaning Atlas charged $5.00 for shipping and handling, which seems reasonable to me. Hopefully, I'll see the new shell soon, so I can make Lee Weldon's (wm3798) day and retire a Chessie System shell. Dave Country: USA | Posts: 878 ljudice Posted - 04/10/2009 :  08:30:15       Atlas' shipping is amazingly fast. I am in NJ which is close, and their orders almost always arrive the next day. http://facebook.com/ljudice http://www.mountainrails.com http://www.louisjudice.com Country: USA | Posts: 2685 Lou D Posted - 04/10/2009 :  09:48:37     Paul,will there be regular announcements posted like this one when other shells are released? I'm making up my hopeful shopping list as we speak... Country: USA | Posts: 3416 davefoxx Posted - 04/14/2009 :  14:57:43     Atlas' shipping WAS fast! The body shell was here by the end of last week. However, the invoice listed the road number that I ordered, but, unfortunately, Atlas shipped the wrong number. A quick call to Atlas yesterday and the customer service representative, Steve, apologized and promised to ship the correct shell out even before I shipped the wrong shell back. Now that's the kind of customer service that Daddy likes. So, for future reference, when placing the order, put the road number that you desire in the Order Instructions Box, and you should get the unit you requested. Dave Foxx Country: USA | Posts: 878 davefoxx Posted - 04/14/2009 :  14:59:26     Oh, by the way, in case anyone was wondering, the shell that I received was complete. That is, it DID include numberboards, handrails, horn, etc. Nice! DFF Country: USA | Posts: 878 rkbufkin Posted - 04/14/2009 :  15:33:17     Dave. My Reading units arrived the same. Nice not to have to order all the bells and whistles. Country: USA | Posts: 651 joetrain59 Posted - 04/14/2009 :  23:37:55     Had the same experience with B-mann last fall. Wanted to order parts for shell. Eventually was told, you can get the shell for, I think it was $10! Not sure,$20? But with ALL details on it!!!! Headlites, piping, bell, etc. This a great new direction, and given economy, understandable. "How can we move all this stuff, just taking up space"? Someone got smart, and realized, we gobble this stuff up. (gulp:) Joe Country: USA | Posts: 3098 Atlas Moderator Posted - 04/16/2009 :  15:51:47     N GP38, GP40 & GP40-2 Shells have been added. https://secure.atlasrr.com/mod1/go.asp?cc=DECBODY Atlas Moderator Country: USA | Posts: 776 gelboy45 Posted - 04/17/2009 :  05:05:40     My Katy body arrived here in the UK today, complete with handrais etc, and with the number I asked for. Wished we got this service over here! Many thanks Atlas. Gerry Country: United Kingdom | Posts: 198 davefoxx Posted - 04/20/2009 :  12:22:54     I received my new C&O shell with the correct road number this morning. Atlas Customer Service rocks (thank you, Steve)! Anyhow, I can't wait to get home and swap shells. Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy! Dave Country: USA | Posts: 878 jmarley Posted - 05/01/2009 :  08:45:28       I'm very interested to see the next batch of these... maybe some B23-7's or GP38-2's?

Atlas Moderator Country: USA | Posts: 776 jdspoon Posted - 05/27/2009 :  13:18:54     Does anyone know if these prepainted shells will be offered painted for the Undec Railroad? Country: | Posts: 261 jdspoon Posted - 05/27/2009 :  13:22:18     quote: Originally posted by davefoxxWhen I ordered my C&O shell, I specified in the Order Instructions box during checkout which road number I desired. Ultimately, will Atlas pay attention to that? I don't know, because I haven't heard from them with regard to my order yet. I figured it was better to try that than to risk them going out of stock. We'll see. I'll keep you posted. Dave How's your luck been running lately?
