Atlas SD60s and Athearn SD70Ms (N scale)

Model Railroader General Discussion (Model Railroader)

Anyone else hear about Atlas re-releasing the SD60s in the new NS paint scheme? Supposedly they are do out in winter. Any input?

Also, I saw that Athearn is putting out their NS SD70Ms. I have not heard good things about the F59PHI, so I am going to hold off for now on the 70s. What say any of you about Athearn’s jump into N scale locomotives?

Yes, Atlas is making SD60M’s in the new “Horsehead” NS scheme (AFTER I SWITCH TO HO [:(!]).

I think there is a lot of optimism that the SD70’s will be nice. Of course Kato is also doing the late flared SD70M’s in Norfolk Southern - no date yet.
