Model Railroader General Discussion (Model Railroader)

I seen this in their annual catalog, it said summer of 2006 , can anyone confirm this???

2

About time!!! They have had them in N-Scale for quite a while.

Athearn Genesis already has these models for two years now. They look good but the sides are printed; it could be nice if the Atlas version had see through openings !

I thought the Athearn ones were N scale, they just LOOK like they could be HO because they are so huge. I just saw some of these on an NS freight held up outside of Reading yard at Belt Line Junction this morning. All empties.

On sandpatch last year, a rack train went by and in the middle there was a block of these about 30 cars long, ***ed impressive sight watching them snake under the keystone viaduct.

Did you see any new Passenger Models for 2006?

My Auotmax’s are articulated.

What Athearn put out several years ago, is quite different from the model produced by Atlas in N-scale. Totally different railcars altogether.

I never could figure out why they didn’t release it in HO. Alot of stuff released in years past was released in both scales at the same time.
