Dear HO Modelers: We found out today that TrueLine Trains (Hobbycraft Canada) will formally announce very soon RS18u's with Chopped Nose!

For those of you who are unfamiliar with what the CP Rail SR18u Looks Like here is a reference photo.

Now in converstaion with Hobbycraft, they have not finalized the road numbers and paint schemes, but we are fairly certain at least two road numbers will be done with MultiMark and two will be done without MultiMark. As well we expext a similiar configuaration with DCC and Sound as without.

We have listed the items below. Hobbycraft would like to see what paint scheme is most popular and just how much demand their is for Sound vs Non-Sound units. So here is your chance to vote.

Also we have a very large number of American Customers. We were contacted yesterday by a couple who have requested the RS18u be done in Minnesota Commercial, who purchased them from CP Rail. There are a number of other US Roads who obtained these units second hand from Canada. If you would like to see some of the second gereation paint schemes done then, we would like to here from you. 

Thanks for your time, Pacific Western Rail Management.
