That is one sweet lookin' little steamer, but it will probably be well above my price range. Sad [:(]

Given Atlas numerous other successful products, the introduction of a steam engine is great news!

I hope the Trainman version will be out soon, because I seriously doubt the first offering will be what I consider affordable.  It sure looks good, though.

I hope that they are as good if not better than the diesels by them.

It looks pretty good to me, and if the price isn't too high, I might think about trying to get one, right after I get one of the Lehigh Valley C628's they make.

It's great to see Atlas jump into the steamer market. Thumbs Up [tup]Thumbs Up [tup]Thumbs Up [tup]

 

BTW, It is also heartening to see a CTT staff member can't get the link to link with a click of a mouse. Had to copy and paste into the browser  .
