Recently announced in HO, a must have for anyone with modern paper industry on their layout.  Make sure to suggest them producing them in N scale

I saw that announcement.  Makes me consider a mid-west switching layout with a billion years of repaints on a single CF-7 . . . .

Didn't they just do some HO car? As for N ... well, they came out with the Canadian so that probably takes care of their efforts to do any more N for a while. Meanwhile cranking out HO NH streamliner cars. Sigh.

Since The Canadian we have had FP9A's. They have those tank cars coming. GP20's? Those aluminum coal cars as well. Still waiting for the FP40PH's. They have told us they have more N scale stuff coming, just not what yet. I haven't seen anything in HO I really want announced except maybe some GP20 tank cars, so I hope anything new won't just be shrunk down HO offerings.
