Wow, not a one on eBay! You could add that to your favorite searches on eBay and wait for one. Other than that I don't know.

I don't think that they have actually been released yet.
Also, you could try one of the other Canadian hobby shops, like:

or

I'm guessing you want the Lifelike Proto 2000 GP9? What road name? With or without sound?

My distributor shows a few left in stock. Many of the roadnames have been discontinued by either Lifelike or the distributor. Retail is $135.00 without sound, $235.00 with sound.

If you want one, let me know and I can order it for you.

Hope this helps.

These are a Lielike canada exclusive. the models are CN or CP with the appropriate cabs ( Canadian rebuilds were alot different than US roads) The pricing is th MSRP non powered will likley go for $165 CDN with soind around $249. Remember only camnadian shops will likely sell these so figure in your exchange rate. Van hobbies in BC or Georges trains in toronto would be other possibilities for you or Niagara Central Hobbies in st Catharines. These have not come out yet. You likley won't see them in shops till mid-sept. You can order from Lifelike canada direct but you Will pay the full MSRP so if you can get them from a shop you will get a cheaper price. You can get to Lifelike canada by following the links on lifelike US's website.

Like I said, keep an eye out on eBay, a lot of the Canadian dealers sell on there. And it's especially easy for you since your a registered eBay member[;)].
