Title: Looks like Atlas GP-7/9's and the PS1's are hitting shelves

Just passing along the info.

The PS-1's look amazing the metal wheelsets look on par with other vendors. I'm totally impressed by the PS-1, way to step it up with a decent price to boot Atlas!

:D

I saw this and here I was cussing out MBKlein for not emailing my notification. I placed my order for some undecorated GP-7s and look for the confirmation and here is not one, but two copies of the in stock notice timestamped at 4:22PM.  Whoops!  But I got what I wanted and have been waiting for at least.

Hope everyone else does, too.

Hmmmm........ I'd been pondering a B&M run-through. Maybe I can get them on the one a month plan. Looks like the undecs without dynamic brakes will sell out before I can get any.  Price isn't that bad.

Are any of the so far available schemes correct for 1947?

I think all of the boxcar red schemes in the first run have 1947 built dates.  I have the B&M and the LV cars, and they definitely do.  The Atlas website pics might be large enough to read the built dates on the other schemes.

The Trainman 85' "Trash" flats also have new metal wheelsets.

1955 for the Rutland car.
