News from Rocky Mountain Train Show.

Can someone direct me to where exactly the information about the VTTX cars is on the JTC website?    I've used up my bag of tricks to no avail.   And I don't see them on any e-tailer's site for pre-order.  I don't even see a post about them on the referenced FB page either.

Not formally announced yet - this is just a flyer from the show.

Not formally announced yet - this is just a flyer from the show.

I figured that might be the case, but maybe they should rethink the title of the flyer..."N-Scale Product Announcement - Pre Order".

DRGW5349:  I've seen those "Scrap and Trash" gons on NS.  Growing up in the Northwest in the 60s and 70s, my thought was "new chip gons", but I couldn't figure out why anyone would be running woodchip cars in the Big Sandy area.

In a completely unrelated search, I came across this image from the JTC site.



It's from the "New Freight Car #1" page.

Yes, Ed - I hear you. It will get better.....  as you can tell, we've spent the money on New Tooling   

The 60' Flatcar Series will be officially announced soon. I believe that sample flyer was there for show discussion, as we haven't sent out the detailed info yet. We have first shot samples in testing now - the car and the new Very Real Knuckle couplers.  Details coming.

Um, ok. That is very interesting (including the name choice).

JTC hasn't let me down yet!

I'd rather you put the money into tooling too!

That's why I'm saying I got you.  Send me a PM with what your web plans are and I'll see if I can help.

Yes - although OVR announced them in HO shortly before Athearn's HO/N announcements.
