N-Scale Fox Valley NS Heritage Units

Model Railroader Prototype information for the modeler

I found out yesterday that Fox Valley is producing the first 4 NS Heritage units, Conrail, Southern, Central of Georgia, and Nickle Plate Road.

Does anybody know if they will produce the rest of the GEVO NS Heritage Fleet?

I know NS just finished the last GEVO to be painted so the next 10 units will be SD70ACes and Fox Valley doesn’t make those.

So any insight on if Kato would make these Heritage units for the SD70ACes?

I might swoop in and purchase a handful of these if the rest do come out. Some of them look unbelievable!

I imagine Kato will release SD70ACe’s in NS heritage paint, considering 1) they produced models of the UP heritage engines, 2) there’s a market for the NS engines, and 3) there’s money to be made.

I’m looking forward to both models to hit the shelves so I have an excuse to buy modern power.
