The following cars have been shipped for all who pre-ordered, with just a few exceptions for those we are still waiting for payment from. If you pre-ordered and have not received your cars, please email us at pdt212@gmail.com. We do have extras, so we can still take care of anyone whose order was lost in the cracks. Atlas O California Zephyr Dome observation cars and 6-5 sleepers Golden Gate "Finish" sets (4 car sets) Now shipping: Atlas O: Morristown and Erie Box cars, Susquehanna Box cars, Nevada Northern Hopper cars, PS4750s, 40' sliding door box cars. Shipping later this month: Golden Gate Modernized heavyweight coaches.
Weaver Models closing.....The weaver models closing was very sudden and quick. Announcement to shutdown was 2 weeks, with another 2 weeks alloted to shipping outstanding orders. We had to scramble to get what we could. We did manage to get the remainder of the MILW ribbed side box cars, the 40' wood side gondolas, 40' tank cars, PRR/PC/CR H30 covered hopper cars, tropicana 57' reefers, and a smattering of other stuff. NOTE: Since the Weaver trucks/couplers and car bodies were manufactured separately, the trucks were added to the cars as ordered. In the end, there were 1000+ more car bodies remaining than trucks/couplers. If you have Weaver trucks and couplers, metal or plastic, just letting u know that they will be in short supply. Especially the diecast ones. We would like to get another 1000 pair ourselves, but its just not possible right now. I guess we'll see what happens.....
