| 26-4 18:04:27 | rvn2001 | I filled out the application for a 46' x 38' space to include Z-Bend Track layouts, T-Track-Z and B.Y.O.Z. tables. |
| 26-4 18:03:23 | craZ13 | I am assuming they have applied for space since the show is close to them and maybe they have heard something |
| 26-4 17:59:34 | rvn2001 | Why would I contact them? |
| 26-4 17:59:14 | craZ13 | Have uou contacted the florida Z scalers? |
| 26-4 17:57:35 | rvn2001 | I applied for space in February, when they opened up the application, but haven't heard anything from anyone about it. |
| 26-4 17:57:24 | GNFan |
Now you're in the same fog as the rest of us.  |
| 26-4 17:56:49 | GNFan | Glad to help, Jery. |
| 26-4 17:56:06 | rvn2001 | The one in Chattanooga Tenn this year...in August. |
| 26-4 17:55:35 | craZ13 | Which NTS ? |
| 26-4 17:53:58 | craZ13 | Mike, thanks for helping me find the Gs4 info. It helped but raised a few questions. |
| 26-4 17:53:48 | GNFan | Thanks, Thom. Disappointing to hear, but helpful to know. |
| 26-4 17:51:43 | Guba | Was wondering on that |
| 26-4 17:51:17 | rvn2001 | Joe & Mike, I still haven't heard anything about the NTS. I can't find a list of layouts yet either. |
| 26-4 17:50:16 | GNFan | Bye, Ellen. Bye, Doug. |
| 26-4 17:49:49 | rvn2001 | Bye, Doug. |
| 26-4 17:49:32 | rvn2001 | Nite, Ellen. |
| 26-4 17:49:26 | craZ13 | a Z scaler and they were working onlocos. If Atlas works wih Sanda Kahn (MTL was using for Locomotives) they should now have the tooling for GP9 GP.35 SD40-2. |
| 26-4 17:49:22 | soccrdad30 | thank you Thom, I might swap out the track.... |
| 26-4 17:49:06 | ejshelton | I have to go....need my nap.....didn't sleep well last night. ZU all |
| 26-4 17:49:04 | DAZed | yeah, I need to get back to projects too, y'all have a great rest of your Sunday! |
| 26-4 17:48:57 | soccrdad30 | See you all on Wednesday, hopefully with a few more layout updates |
| 26-4 17:48:56 | rvn2001 | Get lotz of good stuff, John. |
| 26-4 17:48:36 | soccrdad30 | Time for me to go, time to help the wife grocery shop |
| 26-4 17:47:02 | soccrdad30 | that would be cool |
| 26-4 17:46:34 | DAZed | the other thing is, I expect Atlas could 3D print different boxcars that would fit on the MTL floors and that could really open things up. |
| 26-4 17:46:27 | craZ13 | After Atlas introduced their first Box car run I asked a sales rep about future releases and he said they had more in the works. When asked about the possibility pf locomotives he chuckled and said one of their VPs was |
| 26-4 17:45:13 | DAZed | John, that is probably true, but they still could have just slowed down the releases and done the Z when they had downtime otherwise. A release every 4 months is better than nothing. |
| 26-4 17:44:13 | DAZed | with Atlas being a little more strict with adherence to prototype, I need to adjust the list a little. |
| 26-4 17:44:10 | soccrdad30 | Doug, they could have done so much, but I think they wanted the $$$ and gave up on Z |
| 26-4 17:43:07 | DAZed | I had sent MTL a long list of roadnames they could do with their existing tooling at one point but I think the ship had already sailed with them at that point. |
| 26-4 17:41:41 | soccrdad30 | I was thinking of calling them |
| 26-4 17:41:15 | DAZed | I have been working on a "Dear Atlas" email to drum up support for them to keep doing the MTL Z stuff. But I've been too busy to get it finished and sent. |
| 26-4 17:40:32 | craZ13 | When I went to order from my suppliers they were all gone, but my Atlas rep supposedly was able to secure some for me. |
| 26-4 17:40:12 | DAZed | and I think 6 of the TTX |
| 26-4 17:39:18 | DAZed | MTL did have a few announced items that were not delivered, such as the BNSF and TTX 60ft flats. I had 24 of the BNSF on order from Monster. |
| 26-4 17:38:14 | soccrdad30 | same here Jerry, that part sucks |
| 26-4 17:37:55 | soccrdad30 | I don't know how many he had but they are gone |
| 26-4 17:37:47 | craZ13 | and I dont recall any announced Z scale items for a long time. |
| 26-4 17:37:31 | soccrdad30 | there was a guy on ebay selling the sets for 650.00 |
| 26-4 17:36:36 | Guba | Auto racks about sold out at Monster, I would say they were popular. |
| 26-4 17:36:13 | craZ13 | We have heard a number of reports that are "ify" but mainly they will continue with projects that were announced and in the que. |
| 26-4 17:35:21 | soccrdad30 | I saw a youtube video from Atlas the other day, and they were announcing a bunch of stuff for HO and N, but nothing for Z. |
| 26-4 17:32:34 | soccrdad30 | has anyone heard how Atlas is handling any Z from Medford? |
| 26-4 17:31:52 | craZ13 | Hello everyone. Thouht I would drop in before I opened the store to see how everyone is doing and if anyone has more info on the DS4 arrival other than what Hans has posted. |
| 26-4 17:29:50 | ejshelton | Hi Jerry |
| 26-4 17:29:12 | Guba | Hello Jerry |
