This is good news. There isn't anything I couldn't use. OK, the late phase Airslide is of no interest to me. Please, GSI flats and covered hoppers, please.

I own some Tangent models in HO scale and can vouch that they are among the jewels of my fleet.  This should bode well for you N scalers.

Air Hoses:


36" wheels:


100T (Barber?) trucks. Looks like the bolster is even lower than BLMA's. Nice!


Bethlehem Steel Quads?




































Looks Pretty far along in production. Also, looks like they use the same "medium" box that IM, Atlas and others use. Good call!

 :facepalm:

One of the downsides of WordPress. And leaving the folder wide open. From the shots, they look like beautiful cars, none of which I need, but the trucks and wheels might be of interest.

... Bethlehem Steel Quads?



...

Oh my heart be still.  :o

I have no idea how I'm going to sneak 50-60 of them past the treasurer. Hopefully they'll be released in 24-number groups and they can magically appear on the layout at one or two a week.

Here's the objective, 'cept in the 1971 paint just like the model above:



Let the cryin' begin.

As my wife always says (when I ask her about a big train purchase..) "as long as the bills are paid...."

Not my cup of tea, but always nice to have another company producing in N scale!  (or we wouldn't be able to build a layout..    :trollface:)

 :o :o welcome to N I love Tangent products, I model in N but have bought some of the HO cars for display. Looking forward to your N scale offerings. I'd love to see the G43 gondolas and the Bethlehem quad hoppers our much welcome hope to see them in B&LE 8)

Very exciting to see Tangent in N!  And welcome to Railwire!  (Sorry we blew your cover though....  :x)

The hoppers look great and will be very welcome on my layout, but can someone enlighten me as to how these cars differ from the Trainworx quad hoppers?

Great to see the 100T trucks!!  (I'm guessing this is the same tooling as BLMA's?)
