East is how far?

I assume that is the response you would get from the folks in Oregon; after looking at their February releases.  New stuff roadnames: Alaska, IC, Napierville, Frisco,  and SP.  Reprint stuff: Burlington and PH&D. 
Not much there for the Eastern Time Zone Triangle (Maine-to-Ohio-to-Florida).

Napierville? Do you mean Napierville Junction? If you do, that sure as Hell is well into the Eastern Time Zone triangle, as that was the corporate name of the Delaware & Hudson trackage in Canada from the border to Montreal. D&H marked its Canadian owned cars and locos "NJ". I was not aware that MTL had posted its February offerings yet, where are they?

Thanks for the D&H lesson - that explains the maple leaf on the car.  Try BLW's website, blwnscale.com

Their sheets usually precede the website , at least that what I have noticed .

I'm assuming by PH&D you mean Port Huron & Detroit; that's not exactly west coast either.

M-T aint no Kato.  ;)

Now, I'm sure they are feverishly working on the thing every N&W modeler needs - more flat cars ...

But honestly, I've never noticed a regional bias with M-T/Kadee.

   Every time I run my KATO "HATO ADOAISHO" with it's Mint Green EF58 electric and 12 matching 1950's era passenger cars ,thats East. Now everything else is just the West or the good old U.S.of A.                Nate Goodman (Nato). Salt Lake,Utah.
