Interesting ...

their blog post from back in Novemberish:

Through 2016, we plan to unveil several all-new products including:

HO Scale Trains

     Two locomotives
     Five freight cars
     Two vehicles

 N Scale Trains

     Two locomotives
     Two freight cars

I guess the containers are the "vehicles"

Can you ask them what ever happened to the second run of the 52'6" gondolas?  I thought these were announced at the 2014 Amherst show.  See this thread:

Thank you.

Where can you buy these gondolas?  would like a couple CN.

[JSL]

Directly from Prairie Shadows. Jeff has an ebay store and a regular website. You can email him too as some things are not on the website or ebay.

Also, Arnold has the Sw1 and U25C schemes on display. U28C not here, but production models are about six weeks out.

Any mention of new schemes for the SW-1's ?

Is Bachmann there? I'd be interested to see their new fluted passenger cars if they have samples!

End of the year. Second run of the bulkheads should be out in the next several weeks. You can thank the Canadian dollar for the delays.
