There's not really anything to discuss. Proctor & Gamble didn't announce any N scale stuff either. Big whoop.

I thought for sure they would be doing another run of their ballast cars.
I’m not here to argue

Not surprised since the video's introduction said it had SOME of the new announcements . . . . :facepalm:

Lou,

Did they specify WHICH month and year? Seriously, straight up, are you messing with us?

If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

And you believe everything you read on Facebook?  In that case, let me post the bridge I have for sale...

Kinda interesting that Bachman has more n scale offerings, S4, NW2, etc. than Walthers.  Thank the Heavens for FVM, BLMA, Wheels of Time, Bluford, Trainworx, ESM etc cause without these companies N would be rehashing the same stuff with a bare smattering of new releases from the "big" producers.  Whoda thunk we would see GP60B's in N scale RTR?  And as a SP modeler Intermountain leads the way in whatever SP specific motive power there is, cab forwards, tunnel motors, FP7's.  Ok Kato has done the awesome GS4 and Morning daylight, they do get major respect and appreciation for that.

If it's in Brooklyn, I'll take it!  :D

Walther's responded to a comment he made on one of their posts.
As to what Walther's meant, I have no idea. Your guess is as good as mine.

How long a list do you want?

FA1s
FA2s
Erie Builts
C-Liners
DL109s (other than the roadnames they just did)
C424

Ballast hoppers and Difco hoppers.
45' Log cars

Any and all of these could easily see profitable re-runs.

It sounded like a good idea at the time... too bad the caboose wasn't in on the plan.
