Buying models in 2007.

Who is buying new models in the year 2007. I am.

you can add me to the list :slight_smile:

I want this one. But my wife is adamantly saying no.

I’ll bite on that one Spacemouse, But I am eagerly awaiting Atlas Trainman RS-32 in SP. Being a trainman model I know it will need alot of add on parts to model SP correctly, but another ALCO is my cup of tea. My wife wouldn’t let me keep her either Space.

I have on order not one but 3 Tower 55 SD70Ace in MRL. Boy I can’t wait! I’m assuming that they will be here toward the end of the year.

Chip,I dunno but,that looks like a high maintenance item…[(-D][:-^]

And yes I will be buying in 2007.

I dunno. I’m told they don’t eat much.

…but she does’nt look like the model railroading type…

Mike, you have a one-track mind. I on the other hand can enjoy multiple interests.

As of right now I will be buying 2007 releases from Atlas, PCM, and The Coach Yard.

I am waiting for the new BLI 4-6-2 Pacifics. They are making a few in Boston & Maine. Up until now, the only way to get a B&M Pacific was to spend some big money on 20 year old Overland Brass.

I’m waiting for BLI’s Sd40-s High hood.

I have on order 3 of the Athearn Rock Island 2970cuft covered hoppers, 2 of the Mopac 6-bay covered hoppers, 2 of the Mopac Air Freight Ford trucks, and I’m still waiting on my Kaslo SDL39 which I ordered in 2005 and when it arrives it will be painted for Milwaukee as 584. Which reminds me, does anyone have pictures of 584??? I’d love to get an overhead shot showing the roof detail. Too bad I won’t be able to see any of the items that I have on order until 2008.

does a 20 dollar gandy dancer count?

…probably not DCC compatible either, nor will the sound volume be user-adjustable… In other news, I’m not buying models (yet), but will be buying some track and actually may start to build a layout.

Probably nobody. Haven’t you heard, the hobby’s dying!! [;)]

Not a problem. I pride myself at being a decade behind any trend, so I’m good for a while…

I’ve got the BLI GN 4-8-4 on order, due in May-June 2007 so I’ll expect it January 2008 or so…[:D] I think Atlas is coming out with a red/white SOO GP-7 so I’ll probably get one or two of them too. Otherwise in 2007 I need to get started on the new layout so I have a place to run these things !!

You’d fit in here in Western Pennsylvania. There’s a saying about our part of the country.

If the world were to blow up, it would be 10 years before Western PA would hear about it.

Hehe this very true! Not too long ago, some areas just south of me finally got indoor plumbing… :stuck_out_tongue:

And no, I don’t plan on buying many (if any) models in 2007, unless it’s something I really, really want. I have enough to work on as it is.
