Harry;

Who's the manufacturer of the trucks in images #7248 - 7252? And are they HO scale?

They are N scale from Trainworx.. Incredibly ultra-detailed and executed. They are good enough to be 1/25, as far as I am concerned!

Absolutely, Brian!! Argh!  It's been too long!!

Cheers,
Harry
 

I saw these same photos on Facebook. EXCELLENT PICTURES and coverage. I'll leave my same comments here that I left on Facebook. Since Kevin Eudaly has taken over RMC, R&R, TRP and Railroads Illustrated, he has assembled a team of EXCELLENT EDITORS. These are guys and gals that we all know and they do an OUTSTANDING job. I WILL be resubscribing as long as Kevin and his editors are doing it. Thanks!! GREAT WORK!!  

Harry;

They are gorgeous, and yes they look like 1/25th scale stuff. Any chance they will do them in HO?

Regards,
Russ

Thanks very much for the photos, I have some of the Trainworx trucks ordered from the next run and it looks like I will be happy when they come. I also like the BLMA SF boxcar.

Thanks for the photos Harry. Nice to see the new load option for the HO Bachmann Schnabel car! You happen to know if that is indeed a new Bachmann load or someone else?

Also great to see the NARC 3-bay hopper samples, can't wait until I receive my 60...

Will the truck in the first photo, KW in the VIP scheme, come with N-scale models of Will and Sonny? That was my favorite show during the two seasons it ran in the mid -'70s (my early teen years), definitely better than the later Claude Akins show, BJ & the Bear.

Even though N is not my scale, I will have to pick up one of those, and hope that an HO version is forthcoming.

Amazing what N scale has become. The primer painted tanker truck looks like the one from the old '71 movie "Duel".

Hey Harry, did exactrail debut a new car? I was told they had something to bring to the show, but so far, no mention of anything from them...

Wow, those are some beauty K-Wobblers. I sure could use some in HO scale. K-100 Aerocab (COE) with out a sleeper, and T-800 day cab for BC Rail Intermodal Highway tractors. That would be a dream come true.

Hi Cosmo,

ExactRail debuted their new run of the P-S 7315 60' Boxcar with extended draft gear and new paint schemes and new artwork.  The cars and other cars were for sale at the show at the ExactRail booth.

Hello

The tanker truck is from the movie "Duel" . There is a great scene with a train, that would look awesome on a train layout
