Already on the interwebs.

Lots of new runner packs, fantasy offerings, and more this month.

I'm liking the look of the Winchester Western ACF covered hoppers.

I might grab the 60' box (and need to grab the 2 60' boxes from last month)

Definitely in for the Area 51 set (for the wife).. Still on the lookout of the previous Area 51 Set.

Halloween car is a bit disappointing..

I will definitely pick up the N&W twin hopper (exVGN).

The copy says "Built in 1939 and belonging to series 125000-125999" but this part of the H33 class were actually built in 1947-1948 at the Princeton (WV) shops.

Yes! NYC/CSX three bays! I was planning to send in a suggestion for these so I’ll be in for quite a few. There were also NYC/CSX three bays in the 2005 scheme that could be done in a future release.

I’m also planning to pick up the N&W H33. Looks like it may represent a car during the 70’s.

I’d love to see an eight car runner pack of Virginian twin hoppers. It’s been at least 20 years since the last release of “clean” Virginian hoppers. Some clean N&W ex-VGN repaints would be nice as well. If I can find some good reference photos I’d be glad to pass them along to MTL.

OK I see the SP MOW packs and that MTL says they were pre-order from April but I checked both my sources and neither one had them listed as a pre-order item or even lists that product code on their website at all.

Does anyone remember seeing them for pre-order?  IF so where?

SP Mow packs were pre-ordered in the April Micro-News.
They were listed on micro-trains.com  on the N Scale pre-order page and have now been moved to the New release page with a scheduled release date of mid -September.
Here is the link to the April Media kit, which lists them as a pre-order item.

Thanks Joe.  You guys had them listed there but not a single place I do preorders with had them listed and I had pre-ordered the SP trailers that were put out for pre-order at the same time in April so I don't know why none of those places had those MOW cars listed.  Hopefully Lombard can get a set for me.

I'll see if any are excess here as well.

The ex-Virginian N&W hopper is slick.

My shopping list for Altoona just got bigger.

Lots of goodies this month, especially as an SP modeller. I'll also pick up the Area 51 set, because UFOs are real. 😁
