Those RMPX SW1500's have spent most of their life here in Dallas.   If I was still modeling the TRE in N, (or if they would release them in Z) I would be all over them.   Still might have to get one.   Been needing a mech anyway.

EDIT: Interesting that the artwork seems to indicate they are using the same gray as on the SP's for the trucks/fuel tank/et al.   I think they should be black.   The other thing is, I can't use this particular mech since it is an ex-SP so the trucks area all wrong for me....drats.

I'm in for the B&O 60' car. Roofwalk or not. Waiting on a C&O or 3 if they will do one.

6-axle trucks?  Must be a brand new truck from MT! They must be for carrying giraffes!   :D
