Re: (erielack) Trainmasters

another TM?   I thought that was one of the few engines Athearn got the
hood right on?  Although it's getting hard to do much of anything in HO and
not be re-doing something that's already out there.  Early switchers and
the latest SD70/80 MAC's, about the only holes.   (Athearn is doing the
SD50/60/70/75)  Atlas can use the U23B to make all kinds of other GE's,
B23-7's and B36-7's would be good holes to fill.  Heck you can get 4
different kinds of SD45's now!
