We will do a rerun of F units. That being said we will also release other ATSF F7s, but not necessarily with matching roadnumbers

All our brass projects are on hold until we find a new brass manufacturer. So work was stopped on both Ae 8/14 and N&W J Class. And once we have secured a new manufacturer we will communicate this on this Forum

Our lightweight Dome cars are somewhat generic, but we used the AC&F drawings that were used for UP Dome cars mid 1950s. Overall a pretty good match for other Dome cars. Now since you mentioned GN, we would love to one day do a Full Dome passenger car!

The E7s were assigned to the Sunset Limited. Sure that SP E9s (SP only had one E8) pulled the Sunset as well. The ALCO PAs were also regular pullers

As Robert pointed out, we have never received more products. We have to totally revamp our release plan That is not bad news. By the way, we shot another video yesterday and you will be able to watch all the artwork and a production sample of the 8000 gallon Tank Car. Video should be posted in a couple of days

AZL is very exited about being able to offer the E7 which compliments our prior E8 releases. Railroads include GN, UP, SP Daylight, SP Golden State, IC, MP, SAL, ACL, PRR Brunswick Green, PRR Tuscan Red, NYC, Southern, B&O, C&O, C&NW, CB&Q and Milwaukee Road. There are prototypical detail differences and this time we used etched metal step ladders. A good match for our heavyweight and lightweight passenger cars. And the CB&Q E7s can also be used with the California Zephyr. Arriving March/April. Artwork and photos will follow....

Arriving in March is our new tank car. Based on a General American 1917 design, this insulated tank car saw service from the end of WWI to late 1960s. It will compliment our vintage freight cars and is an excellent match with the Mikes, F units and RS/RSDs.
Artwork and photos to follow soon

We will order extra drawbars on our next locomotive order. They are small and easy to misplace
