Hi David and Team!
Nice N scale MRT coaches. Are there plans to offer HO scale passenger cars in MRT? Perhaps, Rapido will make another run for Kalmbach that could be available to the public?

Hello,
a few weeks ago you provided me with two manufactures that provides Bodyshells for the ATSF CF7 in N Scale. Thank you for the effort, I want to let you know that in the meantime I tried to contact http://www.randgust.com for purchasing one of their bodyshells, but received no answers, so it seems that these manufacturer is no longer trading.
Got the new Walther Flyer and talked about N-Scale. The flyer said it if you were starting out or starting over would N-Scale be an option. Wonder if any of you on the Model Railroad staff ever thought of changing scales and if you kept or sold all or some of your previous scale of building and Rolling Stock.
Fourteen of the NYC coaches went to the the Pickens Railroad for rebuilding in 1967. Pickens sold them to the LIRR in October and November 1967, some of which were used on the “Silver Streak,” which operated on the Port Jefferson branch.
I enjoy seeing the Midday Modeler. I hope you will bring it back in some form.
In the August 1985 issue of Model Railroader, instructions were give to build a LeTourneau Letro-Porter. This was my first scratchbuilt item.
I thought that Model Railroader ran a companion article to build a Yard Tractor. I cannot find the article. Was there such an article and when was it done?
Thank you.

Do you plan to review BLI’s Pennsylvania Railroad E6 4-4-2?
