It is only fitting that my first post on this site is one to ask about the updates for this locomotive. You all wouldn't have expected anything less.

Well of course!
I need to get an update on the Mikado project myself. Maybe some news by the end of the week?
Best, -Rob

Sounds good. The pictures that were released look so good, I can't wait to get my hands on a couple of them.

The sample I seen last year in Sacramento looked very good! In fact I plan to sell all 7 of my Marklin Mikado's once these beauties become available.

I remember Lajos working on some Shay mechanisms, but he seems to have dropped off the face of the earth again. I'm waiting since Christmas for one of his SW-00 switchers (paid in full), and still coming up empty.
Are you foreshadowing, David?

UPDATE: I have the artwork for the Mikados to approve, and the factory has all tooling needed for production. Still no estimated Date for arrival, but forward progress. Attachments:

We wait with patience. What's 15 years to a Z Scaler?

We wait with patience. What's 15 years to a Z Scaler? By my math, that's about 24 days with 1:220 compression... So, that mean I gotta get these out the door in August! Yikes! I guess I should give the Munchkins a raise.

August would be just fine in my mind. However, a it would be a nice christmas present if we could get them before then.
