Check out the products under development from N Scale Kits (formerly Alan Curtis).  If they bring the PRR F39 to market, my wallet will feel some pain!

Wasn't a member of this group at the beginning of 3007 but here are my 3 predictions for 08:
1.  I'll spend more money then I should on model RR equipment.
2.  I'll become more addicted to this group.
3.  Kato will once again push back their PRR Broadway Limited and GG1 because they have 3 more western road passenger trains to do.

2) Atlas will make a new loco, but it will not be a 6 axle -8 eventhough is the most wanted loco by modern n-scale modelers.

I don't remember the GP15 being a 6 axle loco with a dash whatever in its name. Nor the second most popular, the MP15AC. Or even the third, the GP60M. Or the fourth, the GP40X.

None of us were members then Bob . I wonder if anybody will be a member of anything then , and what would the trains look like , and will we still be doing the slinky on our round de rounds .

You caught me.  Stupid fingers.

I plan on beeing alive in 3007.  I'd be nice and old, but it is theoretically possible, and a lot of the folks on my Dad's side have lived into three digits.

I plan on beeing alive in 3007.

Anyone taking side bets on this?

Ummm
But how many lived to FOUR digits...

That's a thousand years John, have you been down the back sipping on White Lightning again?  ;D ;D ;D

  Micro Trains will conclude all their Fantasy and commeortive series cars and start doing only car specific protoype markings. Athearn will release their UP FEF 4-8-4 locos and move on to Eastern Road Steam. GHQ will do a boiler and tender conversion kit to convert a KATO C62 Steam Locomotive into a Wabash Semi Streamlined Hudson 4-6-4. Lastly I will pull all six of my WM locos out of storage, BL2's FA's and a Bachperson 2-8-0 Consol (Connie), and use these at OP sessions on my Western United States sceniked road.                                                                                                                                       Nate Goodman (Nato).

Changes coming - you bet .. just gotta stay tuned .. some may actually be good

I hope nothing radical. That Christmas theme made my eyes bleed. Thankfully it was brief.
