Given the recent postings regarding the desire for caboose models I’m surprised someone has not mentioned the product announcement made at the convention. Spring Mills Depot (SMD) announced they are going to produce highly accurate HO models of the  CF, CG, CH, C2, C-10, C-10a, C-30, and C-30a with paint ranging from as-built to the last N&W block letter scheme. NWHS member Steve Smith and I have been working with this manufacturer for around two years to get to this point, and Steve started the announcement with a summary of the extensive effort that has gone into assembling accurate prototype information. The inspiration for the work came from the Bowers / Brewer caboose book, the rich set of available drawings in the archives, and a personal desire on our part to have models available. SMD plans on having the project details posted to their web site by the end of this month. There will be LOTS of specific models to choose from including most of the roads that obtained second hand N&W cabs. I’m not going to pre-empt the formal product launch on the web site by going into more details here so I encourage you to look for the product to go live on the web soon. While you wait, go check out their B&O cab models, they are stunning! Fred Boettner
