I figure I have about 15 - 18 years left on the earth so I probably won't see the production models. Doug

Spikre That sounds about the right era that PCM/BLI announced the PRR M1. I have them in HO, but tend to pick up nice N scale models like the GS4 and FEF3 also in N scale, but by KATO. They actually run well. I probably should have said 10 years late and really short!!! The video is sort of proof they might have a pilot model and if it runs better than the one in the video, they should sell some of that model to PRR customers. Larry

They're still on schedule for a Fall delivery. He didn't say Fall of which year... I also hope they correct the valve gear and whistle before production.

I got to see the M1 pilot model at the N scale National show in Sacramento yesterday. I asked about the video and it is the pilot model they showed several years ago. It was the only N scale steam model at the show, but if the production models run very well, it should be a nice looking and good model to own. They were showing the PA's also. Larry
