Love all the new releases.But your killing me.My pockets are short and you had to be fast on the buttons to get any of the B&O heavyweights. What gives you send out 20 cars to each dealer. Very disappointed Bob

Hans, Rob, we hope so ! Most all dealers reported already sold out (of unreleased) roads and, only 2-3 'sets' (not 20 as above) so no chance for the casual forum reader to know !

Any Idea on when we'll see a 2nd run of the UP cars missed them My kids love Madagascar 2. After crashing the plane, the penguins are asked "How long until you can fix it?" "Sixtanine Months." "69 MONTHS?!?!?!" "No! Six to Nine months." "How?" "Grit, Spit, and a whole lot of duct tape."

Rob A, I'm actually thinking of a song from my youth: "until the twelfth of never...and that's a long long time."
I was really impressed with the effort and detail AZL put into the heavyweight design, but the execution has been discouraging at best.
When the March "release" announcement from your distributor says he's out of the cars I wanted, and all three of the retailers I deal with tell me they're sold out hours before the AZL release announcement, I decided it's time to just walk away from the heavyweights. Maybe I'll be missing out, but it's not that great a loss to me.
I don't stand in line for Air Jordans or Hallmark Keepsake Christmas Ornaments and I won't do so for toy trains.

Mark Hi Mark, That was my fault. I honestly didn't think the HW cars would be THIS popular - good grief! So I've already expanded our next delivery of HW cars, and I'm putting together another production run. No need to stand in line. We will make more. Cheers, -Rob(A)

We do have Pullman green heavyweights in stock. All 4x road numbers of the 12-1 Pullman green sleepers and the 10-1-2 sleeper Lake Vinyard are still in stock here and at select dealers.
