Just a quick note., They are coming likely by the end of the year. These are samples and I also saw the tank and trucks and all looks really good. They will have the same plug in decoder installation as well.
Taken today at Grand Rapids.

Looks like a couple of the NS Heritage Fleet back there also.
Where was these nice models when I was in N scale?

I went to my Happy Place, but it was closed for renovations.

Thanks for posting the shots. I've had those GP60's on order for what...two years now...and I'm really glad they might be released sometime in the near future. FVM sure makes some nice looking engines.

I appreciate FVM for jumping on these heritage units and GP60's ...and for listening to the customer base. They make a very nice product, simple dcc conversion, and seem to get the products out rather quickly. (Except for that GP60 project that feels like it's taken forever...Patience isn't one of my strong suits.
)
Plus, FVM seems to be making the interesting and unusual...so I'm hopeful they'll announce a Genset one day or a high hood GP30 in Southern colors. One can only hope!
