Its hard to imagine regular online dealers carrying those new brass GN S2 especially at that cost. Isn’t brass, regardless of importer, sold through special authorized dealers? Its due in September and I see no mention of this from any of the major online dealers.
You might have to buy it direct from BLI. I havent seen it mentioned either.
I have no intention of buying one. $1700 is TOTALLY imposible.
BTW-- The Great Northern S-2 isn’t high on my “favorite Northerns” list.
I am so glad I didn’t get addicted to steam…
Hi, my name is Crandell, and I’m a steamaholic.* I haven’t touched a steamer in 24 hours.

My favorite brass dealer, W & W Hobbies, has indicated that they will be selling the new BLI brass - wwhobbies@yahoo.com
I imagine the dealers will order them to suit their customers, as they probably don’t want to sink too much into inventory either. I also imagine most of them are already spoken for, by collectors and a very few modellers. I would think very limited run means less than a hundred.
