So where do I send the chocolates to? I would like to see the Chessie System or B&O released sooner than later. After all us B&O fans were at the end of the line with the Mikado's.

X2 on both paint schemes. I would buy at least 2 of each if made

I saw it last week, And I must say I was pleasantly suppressed. It should give a nice boost to the Z scale community and your sales.

Have you tried "Tacky Wax" or how about "Fugitive Glue" sometimes called "glue dots". (it's the sticky stuff that hold credit cards to the paper)
I think you can get both at most any craft store. I have used tacky wax with some success but it is tempter sensitive too hot or too cold and it will loose it's adhesiveness. Which may help in your case, just pop the car in the fridge for a bit and the load should lift right off

Well since you asked As for my LEAST favorite HW, I would have to say. --Chicago & Northwestern ( Pullman Green ) I'm ok with the (Yellow/Green)
But my Favorite HW would be --C&O (Yellow/Blue)
I love the C&O Baggage cars you did. I'll go as far as to say that if you do, Do a run of C&O Heavyweight's, I would like to be the first to put my reservation in for one of each Road # for each Body style.

Yes there will be more brass. First out is another batch of Big Boys. After the 4-8-8-4 we have several options. We will most probably announce a new brass locomotive early next year. Sincerely, Hans Will they all be Union Pacific? Or is their any chance some might carry a East Coast Road. I myself would Love to see something carrying the Chessie System Logo. David

Don't worry you are not the only one who's gotten a card stock kit a little too wet and warped it. I used left over wood scraps from some older laser cut kits to brace and hold the warped parts straight. Now days I use PrismaColor markers instead of paint on cardstock kits. I have also found that using small pieces of wood (N & HO scale track ties) to reinforce the corners not only makes it stronger it also helps keep the building square. That and I apply glue with a tooth pick one small drop at a time and let each piece dry for a day or two before moving on to the next.

Thanks for the Info. Now that I know their available and where to get them I'll be adding a few extra sets of each to my next order. As they say Accidents Happen and It's not likely to be my last. So having a few spare parts on hand is probably a good idea.
Again Thanks for the info David

Are replacement AZL couplers available anywhere? If so, where can I purchase a set or two at?
If not, Anyone got any tips for converting to Micro Trains couplers?
I need one for AZL Bay Window Caboose #92006-2 and one for AZL Beer Car #91264-1
I managed to brake one knuckle end off on each car in a derailment. (my Fault) The coupler pockets on both cars are just fine.

Any Chance we will be able to pick up a Mikado or 2 there at the show? In any case I'm looking forward to meeting some fellow Z scalar's.

My vote is to release all at once OR maybe post a list of road names, heavy/light and their approximate release date.
My thoughts on this. Not knowing if or when the road name I want will be released, I will buy the first one released regardless of road name to insure I get one. Then I would have to pay to someone to repainted and decaled to suit my needs.
But if I knew my road names B&O , C&O , PRR was going to be released I would wait and buy one of each as they were released.
We have waited this long. So I think for most of us waiting a little bit longer to get the road name, heavy/light we really want, will be the popular choice.
(NTS delivery) Hell Yes !!!!! That would be all the incentive I need to change my "Maybe attend" to "Guaranteed I will be there"

My guess would be a dome car maybe a observation car.
