Hello all,

The eBay listing "ZeN Master Pennsylvania (PRR) R50b Express Reefer kit: N-scale " is set up and scheduled to be listed on Friday, June 12th in the early evening. The Buy It Now price will be $44.95 for the kit plus shipping. We will send out US orders via Priority mail. OUS orders will be handled through the Global Shipping Program, if you are set up to do that on eBay.

I'm off to assemble kits!!!

Best regards,
Michael Livingston

I'm watching this thread with amusement.  Looks like this run will also be an instant sellout!

He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

Confirmed. Surprised at the price increase from the last model though!

Hello all,

The eBay auction is live now. In other good news, we have a shipment of some of the remaining parts, so I should be able to sell closer to my monthly limit (about 80 units) and prep another batch for sale during next month on eBay.

Looks like I will be assembling kits this weekend. Thank you very much for your support and patience.

Kind regards,
Michael Livingston

29 sold.  And this one was to a non-PRR guy, but it might have showed up in a transcontinental express.  That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

50 sold, 2 left. So, there were 52 kits up for sale.

Shark-feeding is almost over.  :)
$2247.50 has been exchanged so far for some really cool kits.

Hello all,

When I went to bed last night, 26 kits had been assembled and packed for shipping, and there were still four kits for sale on eBay.
I was up again early and am assembling and packing away madly. Thank you once again for making this project a raging success.

I will post when the packages go out. They will probably be in two lots, but both will go out today.
There is an airport post office about 30 minutes away and they are open 24/7.

More news soon.
Best regards,
Michael
