Some News:

Fox Valley is going on a Norfolk Southern binge with:

(3) more ES44AC's
(4) 5344 boxcars
(24) RD4's

I will mention that I sent Matt photo links for the 5344's so I take full credit for this!    :facepalm:

I need more beer cars like I need holes in my head . . . . but it will be a cool addition to their line.

I eagerly await the Athearn announcement. No, really, I do. Hoping for that GP40-2L to come to N scale...

Looks like we crashed Craig's server. If anyone sees him, let him know it's down.

Their HO announcement was the SDP45 in SP, GN and Erie variations.

This RailcarPhotos search gives some idea of what was around when.

Yeah I'm puzzled by the Bachmann announcement of an NW2...

http://www.bachmanntrains.net/Catalogs/2013/NMRA_2013.pdf

And they're giving a ship date of Sept... when we're still waiting on the Alco switchers that I think were promised at the end of 2012.

A head scratcher.

Here's the Model Railroader magazine transcription of press releases someone crammed into their faces before they went out to get lunch:

As depressing as it looks for N-scale, if you look you see that it's mostly a rehash of previously announced stuff in HO as well.
