The brand new Athearn HO Genesis GP15-1 in boxcar paint scheme is offered in Germany for
DC version 210 Euro / 258 USD / 188 GBP
Sound version 330 Euro / 406 USD/ 295 GBP
I will skip this one. That is the first time I will not buy a model I would like to have because I am not willing to pay the price.
(Buying in US is not a much better bargain today due to shipping and import tax)

Does anyone know what ever happened to the Atlas Automatic Signal systems that Atlas released several years ago? I thought they might be a good, easy way to have a signal system on my layout. However, now that I am about ready to install them they are nowhere to be found. Apparently they either did not work as planned or nobody was buying them.
Just wondering, thanks.

Is it just offline for maintenance or a fallen flag?

There's a program called, "Strange Inheritance" on TV where they go to people to talk about and show their strange inheritances. Some are weird, like a zoo or circus, others are a real surprise, a painting or a rare car or coin collection that sells for over a million dollars. The one the other day was titled, "A million dollar train set", and was about a train layout and trains that a wife and her daughters inherited. It was a G scale layout and took up an entire 2000 square foot floor of their house.

That episode will run again this Thursday, 2-22, It shows up on FBN on DirectTV, but it could be different on other cables or satellite stations. If you're interested, you can do a search and find it.

SMS sets out some fly ash cars at Perch Cove Power Plant.
