The lightweight passenger cars for the City of Kansas City project (N&W, SP&S, Wabash) should be in the hands of <a href="http:/projects?vendorid=66">North Bank</a> by the end of May. There may be some extra models available, but which won't be know until that time. In the meantime, let me know if you still need any of these cars and I will add you to the standby list.
Latest Additions
Just arrived are the SR Crescent cars and sets from Coach Yard. These lightweight stainless cars are available for 2 eras: 1950s with full stainless finish and later into the 1970s with Black roofs.
3/6 We were able to obtain one more of the T&P cars! Sorry, pictures will be delayed.
Next from Coach Yard is the Restaurant car project representing rebuilt Pullman cars that provided trained chef and waiter service with fine china and linens. Six different car styles have been produced that were used on a variety of roads.
What's New
North Bank Line is looking at producing a run of log cars from Union Pacific. These unique cars were built from old GS gondolas in 1971. They were used extensively on the Camas Prairie Railroad and on other UP lines where logs were handled. Initial plans are to produce a run of 100 pieces. Suggested Retail would be around $679, exclusive of any tariff charge.
4/30 NBL had confirmed that the B&O 'Old Maud' engine will be produced in this project. There are less than 20 reservatioins still open so get your reservation in soon!
North Bank Lines has providfed an updated announcement on their 2-6-6-2 project. The good news is that they will be doing a smaller run count, which would provide for better closure of the project. The bad news is that this will impact the pricing. Given the latest update, the suggested retail will be around $5,000 - note that this does not include any tariff charge. As with all projects, we will be able to offer a discount for early ordering and some pre-payment. Models included will be:
- B&O 'Old Maud' ;
- NP Z class #3004 and #3005;
- GN L-1 class #1907 and 1914;
- CB&Q T-1 class #4005;
- WP 201 Class #203;
- WP 206 class #207

Division Point is finalizing and production of Fairbanks-Morse H10-44 and H12-44 engines. In conjunction with that project, BPL will be providing an exclusive set of Milwaukee Road versions. There will be 2 different paint schemes, Orange / Black and Yellow / Gray. Half of the units are now reserved, so contact us now to get yours.
