Manufactured N Scale Releases

Those are all releases. I have verified all. I have a whole lot more of pending releases, but I don't know when they will be out. Let me know if you want the pending list too.
Jeff

 

Jeff, would you like to help? If you will log all of the announcements for posting on this thread. I will keep track of the releases on my N Scale Manufactured Releases Matrix. Please use any format that is easiest for you.

Your help will be greatly appreciated!!!

Joe

 

No problem. I will get to work on it when I go into work tomorrow night.

 

Thank you Jeff!!!

Joe

 

Here is what I have for Announcements. It does not include the Lowell Smith Texas Special passenger cars which right now have only been MKT.

 

Jeff, thank you for your help!!!

That's quite a list, I'm in the process of logging in the items you posted. Decided to stop for the night, still have about a dozen more to log. The matrix has 403 as of this moment and estimated there will be 416 when I'm done. Started with 78 items in 2008. We have a lot to be thankful for the amount of Frisco N scale items and variety of types of locomotives and railcars.

Joe

 

I almost forgot, some of the items are missing data, such as railcar length, manufacture date, stock number and/or release date etc. They are noted by a "x", if you have any information on what it is please pass it to me. Will be posting the matrix tomorrow afternoon,

Your help with finding the missing data will be greatly appreciated.

Joe

 

Hopefully your employer is not a member here. Hahahaha

 

Jeff, I want to thank you for your help, you made the matrix grow 60 items.


I finished logging in all of the new Frisco items on the Manufactured N Scale Releases Matrix last night. Altogether there were 60 items added making a total of 420. On March 21, 2018, the last time I updated the list, there were 360.

Please let me know if you see anything wrong or if you have some of the missing information. Missing data is marked by a "x".

Your help is greatly appreciated!!!

Joe

 

List looks pretty good. I will work on some of the missing data little by little. I'm a bit obsessed with keeping on top of the list. my ultimate goal is to get one of every release. I am at about 360 so far. I know there are some I will never see, but sometimes some surprises show up on ebay.

 

Thank you Jeff!!! I don't know why I haven't kept up with the matrix over the last couple of years. Guess I was sleeping under a rock. LOL. We are good now. Never thought there would be so many models that have been released in the last couple of years.

Joe

 

The releases seem to sneak up on you. Fortunately I have a friend that works in a Model Railroad store and he keeps me informed about new releases because he knows I will buy just about everything Frisco. Also, the manufactures' web sites have been getting better as far as listing past releases. Atlas now lists everything released back to 2000 and Intermountain also lists their releases going back a ways.

 

According to the Atlas web site, the Air Slide Hoppers and Bulkhead Flatcars should be out around the beginning of October. They shipped from China on August 5 and it seems to take about 2 months to get here and have Atlas ship them out. I wish they would hurry up with the Bi-Centennial Cabooses

 

I added a note to the Frisco N Scale Manufactured Releases Matrix that reads...

Frisco's second generation locomotives official colors are Mandarin and White. Some models look Red, some look Orange.

It was brought to my attention on TrainBoard of the various colors between different manufacturers. The note is intended to help clarify the situation.

Joe

 

To be more specific, it is Mandarin Orange..... there is also a mandarin red, so saying the color is “mandarin” doesn’t help at all.

Of course you can also say it is the same color as Chevy Engine Block Red.... ( which is of course orange, and not red ).

Paul

 

Thank you Paul for clarifying the colors!!! I will change the note to reflect the true colors and post it tomorrow.

Joe

 

Here's the new Frisco N Scale Manufactured Releases Matrix with the note about the colors of second generation locomotives.

If you have any information on missing data please let me know.

Your help is greatly appreciated

Joe

 

The hoppers and bulk head flats from Atlas have started showing up on Ebay. I guess you can add those to the matrix now.

 

Thank you Jeff, I will add them to the matrix. Will get the road numbers from eBay and post the results soon.

Joe

 

Road numbers should already be on the future releases matrix.
