Heads up Genset fans - Tom - 01-24-2009

New HO Gensets JUST announced by Atlas.

Apparently these are the NRE Genset, but hopefully, they start making Railpower Gensets too.

I'm having one of those "Gotta have it" moments.
Fits my time period, perfectly.
Though I half expected Athearn to come out with one first.

Well.... unfortunately, not too much he can use off of *this* particular model, as it is an NRE genset and totally different than the Railpower ones. But at least SOMEONE is doing it, hopefully that means someone will do the RP genny's next.

LOL lets hope. I would like to see Athearn do the RP ones

The problem with the RP ones is they vary across the board more then the NRE ones, though yours are easier to scratch/bash then those NRE units, I think.

I can't wait, I want two UP & two BNSF.
