Things are getting better and better for Conrail modelers! A variety of great products arrived right during the holidays and it's been busy enough that there hasn't been time to even dig into them right away. But, here's a first look:
Right off the bat, it is clear that these have been worth the wait. Wow! A handful of small issues were easily corrected - steps had some loose on a few of the end wells, and a few grab irons were bent by packaging. But for models that travel 9000 miles across an ocean in a shipping container I have no complaints. The dimensions, mechanism, detail, decoder, lighting and sound are amazing.
Rapido is working on a C36-7 and rumor has it the second run of C30-7s is going to include a coveted model for Conrail guys: the C30-7A. So much good to come. Stay tuned!
