N&W RS-3s

[NW Modeling List]

Speaking of which, I saw some samples of the bodies at last weekends Worlds Greatest Hobby show in Columbus, Ohio. Neither were the N&W shell, but very cool nonetheless. Photos attached. 

I also learned that only assembly is done out of country. CAD design, tool making (aluminum molds) and paint/pad printing are all done in Pennsylvania. I was pleasantly astounded. The factory closure, which I assumed was where this work was being done, affected the timeline because without assembly services, there were fewer models to sell and therefore less income to pay the machine shop.

All,
 
  I have spoken with Lee English of Bowser regarding the RS-3 locomotives. Per our conversation, the society will extend the pre-order deadline to noon on April 14, 2020.
 
  Bowser is producing these units in road numbers 300, 306 and 307.  Road number 307 will only be available through the society. Enclosed is the link that will take you directly to the model section of the Commissary.

Get your pre-orders in early as April will be here soon!
 
Regards,
 
Todd Arnett
