Spectrum Long Caboose - Any idea when?

[Steve Stockham]

Dear Bach-man,
  First, let me wish everyone at Bachmann a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I see that the Mallet is going to make it under our trees in time for Christmas and I was wondering if you have any idea when we might expect the Long-Caboose to arrive? I understand that production in China halts for the whole month of January. If the Caboose is not ready for shipment before then (and I think we won't be surprised if this is the case) it would seem that the soonest we will see it would be April or possibly even May 2009. Could you give us a better idea when we could expect it's arrival?

Thanks!
Steve Stockham

Dear Steve,
I'd say April is a good ballpark...
Merry Christmas to you, too!

Thanks for the update!  I'll concentrate in other areas for while then...I need a few more Spectrum Tank Cars I think. 

I do hope for a picture of the long caboose though, as soon as you can get one to us.  I can not believe how much nice equipment is coming out in 1:20.3 these days, this is great!

Merry Christmas!
HO!  HO!  HO!
