I see they've announced an AC4400 in HO (duplicating Roco), and an F3A-B and Bethgon Coalporters in N. These are supposed to appear by December. <br /> <br />The AC4400 will be available in CEFX, CP "beaver", BNSF (which?), undec and both the UP "flag" scheme and the "lightning stripe/wings" scheme. Oddly, they're not doing the original UP scheme, so these units will only be correct for post-2001. Kato makes some strange choices for paint schemes sometimes. One would think they'd want to do the longest-lived/most common schemes, which are the original UP scheme and CSX. They're also missing a good bet by not doing the late C&NW "lightning stripe" or SP "speed". I guess these will appear in a second run. <br /> <br />In any event, they'll look great in MU with my SD9043MAC's! <br /> <br />David
