Title asks all.
Anybody heard anything? The delivery page is still the one from April 2023 estimating December 1st of last year for delivery.

Have you tried anything really crazy like contacting Bowser directly?
No. Don’t want to bug 'em. Usually someone on one of the forums has been tracking ships, etc. Contacting Bowser won’t speed things up. I’m just excited, that’s all.
Since I whined about it so much I suppose I should joyfully announce that after three years, my Bowser F-7 has arrived and I’m very happy with it.

And that’s what really sucks about today’s marketing strategy regarding “preorder”. You just never really know when your order will ship. I have a preorder with Trainworld for an Athearn Genesis GP40 that was “to arrive” a year ago . There’s been three “updates” since then, latest is “to arrive” in February. I doubt that will happen either. Probably then will just cancel the order.

SP&S used an unusual paint scheme on those units. It looks like they just left the roof in primer.
Same thing happened here. In fact, I later preordered their RS-3 that they announce much later and it beat the F-unit to my door by a year, so they don’t even follow the order of announcement. I eventually just put the F-7 out of my mind. But it was worth the wait, I think.
Ha! I never thought of that, but the roof is my favorite part. I’ve heard it called oxide red and Tuscan red. I love this scheme and I’m hoping they someday offer the RS-1 in it.
