O Scale hoppers

[nw-modeling-list at nwhs.org]

Dear Stephen,

Do you know for a fact that Atlas will produce the GP9 in the N&W livery?

I've been tempted to buy a couple and repaint them, but only yesterday Norm 
at Norms O-scale told me to be patient - but, as yet he doesn't know of any 
plans to produce the roadname, but feels sure that with such a large roster 
this livery will be produced.

Very best wishes,
Peter Prydderch, Stockport, UK
