Does anyone on here buy the President's Choice HO sets that come out in Canada each year? I buy them as they come out and have all of them but the first 3 sets. Does anyone know when they'll come out this year or what the set is? I have a friend that actually talks to the guy from President's Choice that is in charge of putting out the sets. The guy said he was thinking of having it with a hudson (I hope it's the Royal Hudson). Last year, the sets had already come out by this time. I've been asking about them at local Superstores (where you buy them in western Canada). One said they'd call me when they got them in. I got a call from them today saying that they weren't going to get any this year. One year the sets weren't sold in western Canada, is that the case again or are they not coming out with one? <br /> <br />For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, President's Choice is a Canadian company that makes food products. Each year they have a special limited edition train set made for them by Mehano. Although they have horn hook couplers and the rolling stock is basic RTR, the locomotives are usually of a very high quality. The sets reatil for $99 Canadian, which even for just the engine is very cheap. The sets that have been produced have had the following locomotives: <br /> <br />-SD-45 in unprototypical PC paint scheme <br />-CP 2-6-2 <br />-CN 4-6-0 <br />-CN SD-45 <br />-CN 4-8-2 <br />-CP 2-6-0 Camelback <br />-CP 4-6-2 <br />-CN 4-8-4 <br />-CN 0-8-0
