Finally available in N Scale are the new Triple Clasp HTC Truck found on N&W's SD40-2's.  The new trucks are 3D printed replacement frames for Kato SD40-2's.  Here's the link https://www.shapeways.com/model/1813677/emd-triple-clasp-ht-c-sideframes-n-scale.html?li=search-results&materialId=61 

Have a nice day!

To coin a phrase, When it rains, it pours. This March has certainly favored N&W steam-era N-Scale modelers.

AT LAST, N&W's CF caboose (wood side) is available, coming out as a laser-cut kit, American Model Builders' item AMB 552.  To view, go to Brooklyn Locomotive Works (www.buynscale.com).  Under "new update log", click Laser Kit, 26 March.

On the same screen scroll down to 8 March, announcing Broadway
Limited's N&W H2a 3-bay hopper, a long-awaited production, available in both 17" and 24" "N&W" car sides lettering (the latter for stenciling when cars were shopped / built 21 October 1952 through 1956.) 

The CF is sold as a single item, whereas the H2a is available in
6-packs only.

I do not have the models in hand, but photos in the above references
appear to show accurate work.

To my knowledge, these are the first commercially-produced models of
the two cars.

If the Modeling Committee was involved in the birthing of these
models, take a bow!
