Something to pull behind your N&W J!

[Williamson]

According to the latest Rapido Telegraph, they may cancel many of their announced N scale passenger cars - unless they get more reservations in. So if you were thinking about getting a few cars to pull behind your J get your reservation in! (I ordered two of the coaches).

Hello Williamson,

I have the six different car no.'s on order from my local Hobby shop. It seems odd to me that after waiting years for Bachmann to produce a halfway decent model of the N&W J. The cars never seemed to be an issue for them. With so many of the newer Bachmann
J's out there. I would have thought the N&W road name would have been a sell out for Rapido Trains. I've seen the Pennsylvania sleeper, It's a Gem and the Easy Peasy lighting system is included in the price. The price may seem high, but if you consider what your getting. It's really a bargain. Sure hope it doesn't get cancelled.

BTW Intermountain/Centralia Car Shops is offering N&W sleepers in their new lineup in the Wabash/NKP paint scheme of stainless steel with blue letter board (Lettering iis Norfolk and Western). These new cars include interior details and interior lighting. Below is a link to their web site. I don't see the N&W cars listed to date, but did see them listed and pictured on a poster at my local hobby shop here in Anderson Twsp. (Cincinnati), Ohio. Haven't ordered any yet, but plan to buy a couple.
