My thanks to both for their help. Just a comment on Atlas Locomotives. Atlas doesn't want to keep an inventory on models. They want to sell them all out. The distributors don't want to carry an inventory on them either.
Inventory costs money when units are just laying on a shelf gathering dust.
Send us your reservations now. Orders will be filled on a first come first serve basis. When it was first sent to a retailer, it apparently didn't function properly. This engine type pulled the Stillwell coaches through many parts of New York and New Jersey for almost 40 years. This model even has smoke coming out the stack.
