So what will Kato do now ?

[3rdrail]

Has Kato ever heard of B&O?

Yeah, they did their E8's and smoothside passenger cars in B&O, but that was ages ago.  :-\

Hey Chuck,
    Enough already !!!!!!!!!!!!!!  What's the eastern road ???????????

[DKS]

All I want for Christmas is a nice blue and yellow CNJ F7A & B pair.

Fat chance.

Maybe Intermountain...

I really don't think most Americans or Canadians would consider the Algoma Central to be an Eastern road!

I doubt many would call Ontario western either  :-\

Guess you consider the Wisconsin Central an Eastern road as well. I do not. Ontario's a damn big province that stretches well into the center of Canada.

Quote from Trainboard:

just in the room from setting up, can you say "PRR-fect"
plus the GG1 to pull it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[wm3798]

When Kato says Eastern Roads, they mean JNR ;D

Emperor Hirohito

See the Atlas board - it's a GG-1!

Well thats great news . The loco deserves to be made , if for nothing else , out of respect for the icon it was . Many will cry out for catenary now , and with Kato , that just may come to pass . I may grab one for the hell of it . I have a RR tuscan one for display , I hope they do a LIMA BEAN (DLEG or is it LEDG , maybe DELG , I can never remember the acronym , I'll have to make up my own once I get myself corrected ) colored one . Now should I hope for a five stripe or a fat stripe . I will need to re-research this once more , providing Kato does more that one scheme .

  I 'am switching to the "Fiddletown & Copperopolis" for those of you not fimilar with this railroad find a copy of Carl Falleberg's book published by Heimburger House Publishing ISBN 0-911581-04-9 . It is "The LINE of LEAST REITANCE". Anyone reading Artist and cartoonist Fallberg's book will want to model the F&C . Nate Goodman (Nato) . "What does this have to do with what Kato will do next and Con Cor Pennsy GS 4 locos with cone-shaped smoke box fronts?"

So,
finally the Kato corporate 'Western Road Bias' bashing can stop...










Didn't think so...

Richie, they look best "all black" with a PC or a small CR on the side...
