Ed, The BNSF Triple Crown facility here in Dallas/Fort Worth (actually Saginaw, TX) is using an old ATSF intermodal yard. Paul's reply is consistent with what...
I like the Walthers containers because they're relatively cheap and they have pins to connect each other with. But I'm a little tired of the same container...
Does Walthers normally release N scale versions of much of their HO line? As long as we're talking about them, they do the 53' NSC well cars as singles and 3...
... Not to the extent Atlas does. Or even Athearn, for that matter. But still - they obviously have the castings for the things, and already went through the ...
Thats a real shame, there is a gap in N scale intermodal for both of the products I mentioned-- Microtrains hasn't released their version of the 89' TOFC flat...
... That's because Walthers doesn't like doing things in N scale. They bought Life-Like out 2 years ago and what have we seen from them since? Only different...
With all of the beautiful N-scale intermodal equipment out there by Deluxe, Walthers and several others, where are the decent road tractors? I've been looking...
Hi Elson, We (DeLuxe Innovations) have China Shipping 40' Hi Cube containers in the early stages of production now (the artwork is now done.) As for NOL, we...
MAN!! This is why you guys at Deluxe are so *!*!^^ awesome! so here's my suggestion: ANY containers in Hamburg Sud (we need!!!) Corrugated Tropical containers ...
Hi Doug Exactly what I was after - many thanks. Can you give me an address around this location? I can then google earth it for the track layout. Cheers and...
I'd like to start a discussion on prototypical methods for arranging your containers on trains. I know some people just stick whatever containers they have on...
Just to add to Elson's points, Maersk are headquartered in Denmark. Alaska Marine Line 53' containers are the only ones of their size to travel over water - by...
I'm certainly no expert but I own two DVD's with a great deal of info on modern intermodal traffic over NS Harrisburg line and CP's northeast line between...
Sounds good. I live just a 40-minute drive from the great Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. I even have some merchant marine cousins who work for some of...
... For the record, they have also announced N scale DIFCO side dump cars (supposedly arriving soon), which is advertised as new tooling. So there is still...
... We've done the 20 already, so would you prefer the 40 hi cube, or the 40 reefer first? ... Tropical has lots of 40 hi cubes so that would be a fun one too....
... size plus AML 20' Another vote for Hamburg Sud (see above)! Artwork is done on the Hyundai 40 hi cubes and production is well underway on COSCO 40 hi...
Hi Max, Tractors have become a real can of worms in recent years. The prototype builders have been targets of acquisition by auto makers and they have top...
... I'd go pretty nuts over the 40 reefer, I'm seeing loads of reefer containers on dock, truck, and rails here in Miami (but I wouldn't be complaining at all...
Here is a shot of the Tropical shipping container I was talking about, I never realized it had the arrow in the "T" Very sharp looking IMHO. http://www.matts- ...
Thanks for the reply. Any chance of better availability of undecorated containers. Here in the UK they are unobtainable. I require a large number of 20' to...
... There is also a "dot com" version of Tropical's arrow-T logo: http://www.krunk.org/~joeshaw/pics/temp/tropical-dot-com-1.jpg Don't know how widespread this...
All, I'll add the Hamburg Sud reefer and Tropical hi cube to the art department queue. That is the first Tropical.com container I've seen. We'll have to save...
Just curious, is there some sort of licensing/legal procedure that needs to be done with the shipping companies in order to print and paint their schemes? Most...
Dear Nigel, Mac's Model Railroading in Helensburg, Scotland is our designated parts and undecs source for the UK and Europe. If you placed an order through...
