Request for expression of interest

[NW Modeling List]

OK guys. Thank you all for your interest. Right now we're trying to get
this one structure done, and it looks like it's going to happen. We are
taking all of your suggestions and we're gonna try to see what's feasible,
but we want to get this one done and see how it's gonna work out. Again,
thank you all for your thoughts.

Frank Bongiovanni and the NWHS Modeling Committee

What about Blue Ridge station or Vinton?

Sincerely,

I’d be interested in a combination station in O scale as well.

Not interested as I model in O scale 2 rail.

Have you considered a standard N&W combination station in O Scale. I have
been asking around for years. With all the Lionel , MTH and 3rd Rail
2-8-8-2s out there surely the 3 rail market would support such a project as
well.

*We had put this out on the Virginian IO Group, but thought it worth
putting on this group also:*

The NWHS Modeling Committee is working to get some more N&W/VGN specific or
special models produced.  Today this IOgroup has approximately 660
members.  Our best guess is that about half of you all are modelers, mostly
HO, so this seemed like a logical place to determine if a special Virginian
model is feasible. The Society needs good information to justify the
investment of members' money.

We are working to produce a typical--meaning working off "standard"
drawings--for a Virginian medium sized station, utilizing the station at
Purdy VA as a start.  We are working with a laser kit manufacturer who does
high quality work--we've seen the models he has done for other societies.
Estimated price is appropriate for a model of this quality done in limited
quantity.  We will be including information as to history, modification for
similar Virginia structures, etc, and painting suggestions.

So to cut to the chase, we'd like to know who would be interested in such a
model, HO, Virginian station, retail in the $80-90 ballpark, hopefully 10%
NWHS member discount.  No hard commitment, no deposit.  Just if you'd be
likely to purchase such a model at that price.

Please send your responses, and comments if any, to:  vansconf at yahoo.com
