In the past, I have usually waited until a proposed delivery date is given. But, it is nothing to start a list of members interested. As the release date nears, I am sure it will be announced via the web site, THL flyer and jungle drums.

News on the new 2 Bay hopper cars in black and yellow. We anticipate delivery sometime in June. Attached is a PDF file of the proofs of the cars. When actual photos of the cars are available, we will post them here also.

That is from our Modeling Committee Chairman Chad Boas.  That is part of his report for the board meeting on Saturday.  He and Mont worked out the details on the lettering for the proof.

I have heard that our order may be completed in the near future. That is good news and as soon as we have them in our inventory, they will be available for sale.
