Label: They're here!
That's right, they're here! Last Tuesday pm I picked up the very first order of the production run wood sheathed boxcars. They are fantastic! The reason I am writing about it a week later is that I needed time to evaluate the boxcars. Otherwise I would be telling about how they looked to the exclusion of other qualities. So, that is where we are. This upgrade will bring us to a new plateau at The Omega Scale Railway. To reiterate, our goal is to bring omega scale railroading to the world. New members of our family are as follows: GM&O 51015, GM&N 20141, GM&O 51017, GM&O 6170, SSW 37502, GM&O 6172, SEABOARD 15717, NH 61753, GM&N 20143, CB&Q 28001, MP 14915, GM&N 6094. We are delighted to have all these on the property (I.E. the assembly shop). These new arrivals have true to scale letters and numbers with one exception. We decided to use 12 inch instead of 9 inch letters and numbers for the benefit of the end user. The 9 inch graphics were very hard to see. The 12 inch size is in fact borderline but we want to stay as true to prototype as possible for the benefit of our collectors. More developments to follow. Omscaler
