If it was MTL, you should expect one from IM as well.

Yeah but the MT will have the almost correct shade of the colors use by the prototype, IM will just wingett to see what color comes close.

What prototype? You mean the correct flag colors on their upcoming "GEVOs of the European Union" series? :)

Kato's site has "--> Coming Soon" listed right after the Dash9's in the North American N scale locomotive section.

If its someone other than Kato make this they could have a gold mine since they could also do -9 and AC44 with the mech, trucks and cabs. Hope they have regular DCC ready versions.

The train show part of the convention doesn't start until saturday, so I figure tomorrow is setup. If it's to be announced maybe will here something tomorrow night.

Dowish's comment is really interesting:

http://www.katousa.com/N/locomotive.html

If you poke around you see this is exactly how they put a placekeeper in for a new product.  And wow , they are in alphabetical order and guess what FITS THERE:

            GE GEVO
            GE EVOLUTION
            GE ES44AC
            GE ES44DC


I've said it again - I know about XXXXXXXXX - but could Kato be planning its own bombshell too?

BOMBSHELL ALERT:



The "Coming Soon" on the Kato Site in the LIST OF GE's - IS NOT IN THE GOOGLE CACHE, which means it was entered into the site just recently....

I'm nobody special, actually in the Portland, OR area.  I was actually on the Kato website researching decoders for their SD70ACes so I knew what to be on the lookout for tomorrow at the NSC swap meet.  I saw that and immediately thought "GEVO!!!"

Am I right in thinking that the ES40's are based on Dash 8-40 chassis' and ES44's are based on AC4400 chassis' in 1:1 scale?

With the Kato "coming soon" poping up, just thinking who has the mechanism already that would work for each variation.

No they are all base on the -9/AC44 frame.
