Laurel Valley Hoppers are on their way to home rails.

Just got word from Craig that there's a 150 car coal train heading toward the Eastern Shore.  Should be arriving sometime mid-week.

I'm working on the re-number decal sets for those of you who made multiple set orders.  I'm planning to attend the Timonium Show on Sunday 10-31 to meet some of you with your deliveries.  I'll be shipping a lot of the cars out before then, so we won't be doing the run of the full group on the Bantrak layout, unless folks don't mind waiting a little longer...

Anyway, thanks again for your support on this project.  And remember, if you missed the pre-order, you can still pick up a set from the N Scale Intermodal Store on line.

Conrail's Juniata Division is holding UPC8 west at Enola, awaiting one more 3-bay hopper to replace one set out in Philly for a cracked wheel.  This is a train of empties headed west to Cresson for utilities coal to run back east with more coal, so time is of the essence.  An LRV 14-panel would fit the bill just fine.

Altoona is currently in pieces, and it's going to be a few weeks until it's back together, so feel free to add mine to the epic LRV coal train on the Bantrak layout.  Looking forward to seeing these!
