I found I was thinking about these kits over the day.

I should be a little more clear about what I would buy.
I want a train of these and that is about 20... ish.
what I can't see is that I will buy them all at one time.

so I am hoping you will have them available in batches over the next year or two.

Allen, You betcha- I'll have to space them out as well.  the models look excellent.  Produce these for a while and you'll have sales for a while by the looks of things.

These are definately cool. They're out of my era, but I still will get three or so. However, I'm waiting on the F25, thats what I would like. Any idea on when they'll be available?
Thanks

Very nice cars and they come right as I'm building a Penn Central based layout so a set of five cars would look nice behind my two GP30s...even if this is a little bit short for a ore train...so when they'll be available for a longer time I'm in for some more...

The G28's got me in the door, the F25a's are making me get out my wallet. I'll take at least 4 of the F25's.

All, I must say I have been building one of Allen's F25 kits for the past few weekends and it really is exquisite.  I use that word because the etchings are really well designed and save for having to make a bending tool, I have been able to build this with relative ease AND, drumroll please, WITHOUT the aid of instructions!   :D

Here is his only pic: http://prrspfdesign.weebly.com/f25a.html

That is not a slam on Allen, but more of a compliment to his design skills!  I was able to understand what each piece was and envision the assembly process just from the parts on the fret.  The rods are an assembly aid to align the four parts that align exactly on that axis and will be removed before the real alignment part is installed.

REALLY well done Allen and I am going to ask my wife for two G38's for Christmas!  The F25 will be by far one of my most cherished models (that is until I get some G38's)!

Just a few pics:

Well, the Jennies are beautiful but unfortunately not something I can use. But, the F25a well car, that's another story...it's beautiful AND it could have found its way to the west coast with a specialty load. So not being a Pennsy guy, when were these first made and which paint scheme would they have worn? (I model circa1950).
Thanks, Otto K.

Thanks Lemosteam for posting some pics looks like the kit is coming along great.

To all the fellas interested the F25's are coming and I am going to put in an order for more G38's soon as well.
I put things on a quick hold as I bought a house and between signing papers and now moving life was just to busy.
So be prepared early net year for all the Ore Jennies ( G38,G39 and G39a ) to be available as well as the F25's.
All the kits come with decals the jennies are done by Microscale the F25's are done on my Alps.

Thanks everyone and keep an eye on the website and here for updates.
