Athearn GP9 Announcement

[NW Modeling List]

I seriously doubt it..Athearn has not been doing too much in the way of new
locomotives in N Scale and they don't have GP7 or GP9 units.

Atlas and Bachmann are your choices to lobby..and the Bachmann unit is not
very well executed.

All;

 

Athearn has announced four roadnumbers of N&W GP9's. Two will be Pevler Blue
and two in metallic Tuscan. All road numbers will be offere as both DCC
ready or with DCC and Sound. Sound will be Soundtraxx's Tsunami 2 sound
system.

 

Road numbers are 502 & 508 in blue and 514 & 521 in Tuscan. Details will be
road number specific. Artwork appears that the scripted logo for the Tuscan
units will be on a separate photoetched plate. Hood lettering on the Tuscan
unit appears a bit off to me, but I am viewing it on a smart phone,
hopefully Messers Brewer, Painter or Nichols can comment.

 

MSRP will is $189.98 non sound and $289.98 with sound. Street prices will
vary. Tentatively scheduled to deliver in late January 2018.
