No Walthers Name Train
Author: CO1309

Has anyone else noticed there hasn't been a Walthers Name Train announced since fall of 2022?  It was an annual tradition with them.  They have also pulled back on general announcements significantly.

Their current name train happens to be freight. Pennsylvania Railroad Merchandise Service Freight Train. Along with suitable FP7 A and B locomotives. Not available in Union Pacific . . .

Maybe they got tired of getting bashed every year.

I don't recall anything about PRR FP7s on hotshot PRR freight trains.

The PRR FP7s spent way more time hauling freight then they did hauling passengers.
