This week, I finally reached the minimum order quantity required to move
forward with the 44-tonner design. Both of the most popular versions, Phase
Ia (no front grill) and IVb (with front grill) will be produced using the
same 3D CAD, rapid prototyping and urethane casting process as all previous
kits. Athearn's tried and true Ready To Roll mechanism will used for the
gearboxes and, possibly, the motor if I can fit it in. Design will start
late this month with a target release date of March 2011.
Since this is now a "go" project, anyone else wanting to place an order by
email should do so ASAP. Payment-in-full is required by 1/7/2011 or your
order will be cancelled. The cutoff date is required so I can order just
enough photo etched parts and misc. items but not extras.
Pricing: $335 postpaid for either version with Code 110 wheelsets, DC only
or $355 postpaid with AF-compatible wheelsets, DC only. Prices applicable
in the Lower 48 only. If using PayPal, add 4% to the order amount and send
to my email address thru PP, otherwise, checks or MO can be mailed to the
address below.
This is the ONLY notice I will post so don't miss out. Contact me off list
if you have questions.
