Folks,

I do not know if they will do anything with the domes on the loco but the tender will be the correct version according to my sources.

Hi Steve. We beat this up a bit on the Virginian list, and here's what we think we know:

Riv asked NWHS for information about the tender, but appeared to have no interest in the domes. We won't really know just how "correct" it is until it shows up "in the flesh". It could be anything from a relettered C&O H-8--see MTH VGN triplex, a Gem/Akane VGN AG--to simply wonderful.

And then the question for individual modelers will be a Riv AG at $400 (my guess as to what they'll go for), or a Key at $800 or Overland at $1200 (okay, Steve; I'm pulling those prices out of the air, but you see where I'm going)(and the swiveling rear engine is another discussion). If someone could come up with correct domes as an add-on.....sigh.
