Any chance of doing PRR Freight pack - particularly F units for freight?
Similar to your NYC Freight pack? Anything out on the various sites are 5-6 years old, and very rough by todays standards.

There will be a full PRR freight pack coming. The F-7s are complete, with the exception of some shape rework that Gaetan will have to do. There will be a lot of other locomotives in the set as well, mostly Alcos.

Here's a view of the current F-7, prior to modification.

Outstanding!!! Now if we can get some GP7 and 9's, we will be in business.

Has this set been delayed? I know there was talk about waiting for the PRR Eastern Region to be released, but that may take forever. I could be running Pennsy Freight on my version of Ohio Rails along with Gaetan's B&O pack. Come on guys, I got my money order ready, just give me the word.

Duncan,

We have a bit of a log jam. Each of the PRR models needs shape changes (radio antennaes, sheet metal pilots, train control boxes, etc.). It will probably take a while for Gaetan and I to finish them.

We made a judgement call to do the NS business train first while the PRR route is still in beta.

I will ask Gaetan when he thinks we will be able to get back on the PRR set. I still have more skins to do as well.
