Where is the news from this show? It's going to be the biggest show in the U.S. outpacing Chicago by an exponential factor and you don't have a wepage for it?

Whoa, slow down geocan. The show hasn't even opened yet! I'm in Vegas and will be providing new product coverage later today (Thursday), tomorrow, and Saturday. Here is a link for the story I just created:

Well at least there is a wepage built now.

I hope the pictures from this show will be taken
from closer than those taken in Chicago.

An N scale shay? Be still my beating heart! Thank you, Atlas!

Hey Erik, any chance of posting a photo of the shay? Or is this not available yet? You had to know I'd ask.[:D]

geocan,

Please understand I'm covering this show by myself and uploading content and photos via a 28.8 connection. Your patience is appreciated.

Brickhouse,

I thought you might like that Shay announcement. Atlas only had a brass sample, and since the model is actually going to be die-cast and plastic I didn't want to show it because I don't want people to think the actual model would be brass.

The show coverage is now in multiple parts. Here's a link to part one:
