Bach-man,

Do you have an expected delivery time for the new On30? Last I heard it was spring.

How about more photos and information about the options/detail parts. I want to get one or two ordered but I need to know what I'm ordering.

Thanks,
Travis in Mesa

 We have people here in  Wichita asking the same question!
Anticipation its keeping me waiting! ;D

Knowing the ETA would help with the budget planning.  Also, I need to know when to crank up the Honey-Do projects, and earn some extra points, so I'm not in trouble when a new train shows up.

 ???Question; Has the 4-6-0 ever qualified  for the outside frame version?

C.S.R.R. Manager

There were some sharp outside framed 4-6-0s on the Oahu Railway, and there is a sister loco to the latest 4-4-0, in Brazil, which is a 4-6-0.  There was a book about the Oahu that has a photo of a 4-6-0 on the cover.  Google that, and 4-6-0 Brazil.

Thanks for the heads up Manager! If they in fact as you say ran them on the Oahu Railway then the Plantation style porters would fit in nicely! :D
Thanks, I shall check this out closer!

Let's see if I can post an image.  It's from www.goldenspike.us.  They have 4 books on Hawaii railroads.
