[BNSF9370]

Have you heard about the new INRD SD9043MACs being released pretty awesome from what ive heard

[aaron13133]

aww ffs, not available to view on ipad? come on

[gyrusse]

Why does it take so long for Bowser to do the business and get a new model out to the paying public.

[nawrock]

good to see the bowser announcement

[Tractormanpj]

Kato has some of the best doublestack cars I have ever seen. Made of metal and plastic blend.

[stationmaster12]

WOW if you're Canadian you're in for some new stuff. Otherwise....BORING!!! Kato really is sucking this year. What's up with that?

[elr2141979]

@stationmaster12 kato is a N scale company that does littlte HO scale.

[mikeb931]

Hey Big Al,

[MrLocomechanic]

[Morningwithmattnjen]

Reefer. heeheehee

[ilog0008]

nice vid again



[UnionPacificBNSF]

I got a SD60 bought in 2001 just rebuilt her in 2010 and hope to get another 8-10 years from it.

[UnionPacificBNSF]

Biiding on Bay for several Atheran P40s they the Blue Box kind but with little work will look just as good as RTR or Kato. I paid 100 for my RTR AC 4400 and 60 for a Bachman SD40-2 the Bachman is the better engine. I wish Proto 2000 would release the modern wide cab units. I love their SD50s and SD60s.

[duhrailed]

@UnionPacificBNSF get the super detail kit for it

it really brings it to life, i bought 2 kits

don't ask me why cause i only have 1 locomotive for them

lol

[amtrucker1]

nice but i dont see much trucks :(

[PeteM234]

I can't believe the meager showing from such major train manufacturers. paying good money to go to a show to see one little oval of track running an engine and a couple of cars and nothing else is a real ripoff. Isn't there anything nicer to look at from a major hobby show?

Pete

[duhrailed]

it's unfortunate about the prices skyrocketing

that is the main reason, i'm slowing down

[mrodriguez4829]

@duhrailed The prices are getting ridiculous. You're not kidding either! I wanted to buy a Kato N-Scale loco but was upheld by the $109 price tag. Spent $110 the other day on an HO Amtrak Phase 1 loco.

[duhrailed]

@mrodriguez4829 locos i bought for under $50 are now over $100

now something new,

shops are pushing you to pre-order locos but won't tell you the price

saying to buy now cause you won't get one when they come in

i just look at them and say"i don't buy blind. I'll wait"

one shop tried to sell me an athearn for $250 trying to tell me it was a great deal!

i don't think so

LOL

[mrodriguez4829]

@duhrailed For $250 I hope it was an Athearn Genesis line model. Even the prices for the cars are ridiculous. but none the less its a hobby I enjoy.

[duhrailed]

@mrodriguez4829 it's a hobby i really enjoy too

i spend an average of 5 hours a day in that room

talk about stress relief

MonsterRailroad.....what's in the plans for the next build?

[CSXManG21]

Really cool stuff wish i lived closer so i could go.

[awsomeRailFan]

that show looks off the hook :D
