Bowser 55 Ton Fishbelly Hopper

[NW Modeling List]

Thanks Todd, I will keep an eye out for further announcements.  Saw your other email about the society making an order instead of pre-orders.  

In case you are keeping a count, I plan to get one each with the road number and probably 10 or so without numbers. 

Thanks, 

Will Sadler

However, a minimum order of 50 units is required. My preliminary thought is to order 50 un-numbered units and 15 units of each road number (3) for a total of 95 units.  However, I would prefer not to have a surplus that remains in the inventory for a long time and hope our folks buy them up.
