Would like to see a NKP Hudson with smoke deflectors in N from some manufacture, Hope its Kato... Bmann of MP would work also.  

More small steam with cast boilers ...heavy cast boilers.

Break though in heavy metal that weighs twice that of tunston and castable for new chassis that will allow the needed pullingpower for  long trains, With out the TT's.

Tender powerd chassis that pulls 40 cars.

I would love to see BLMA do freight car side braces with rivits for box and hopper car scratch building .. too bad there would not be enough demand ..

that will continue to be ignored in 2008:
PC&F boxcars
SW1500
MP15AC
S-12
GP40X
DH643
LPG tank cars
SD45-2
Detail parts, we will be longing for the 'good old days' when models sucked but you could get detals to fix them...
Support fine modeling

Demand?

With all the counters out there I think BLMA would have a hard time keeping em in stock?

one  pack of 50 rivets, two packs of rivets,  three packs of rivets... ;)

Unfortunately most of the counters are not modelers ...

Conspiracy theories ... I like those ..

Shutdown - unlikely .. I just re-registered the domain name for another 3 years .. :)

Changes coming - you bet .. just gotta stay tuned .. some may actually be good :)

I predict that PCM will announce new Nscale locomotives and no one will care.  No, wait, that came true in 2007.   For 2008 I predict that PCM will announce nothing new in Nscale and no one will care.
