    Well everyone, I let one slip by me! Broadway Limited is releasing a Phase IV NW2 in their new Paragon 2 line. The first run does not include one for the Frisco but does have an undecorted version. As most of you know, there were actually 3 paint schemes in the history of the locomotive so this will allow painting one for your partiular era.
    BLI is saying these are in stock now and the stock # for the undecorted version is 2121 with an MSRP of $179.99. This is a sound only model with their own Paragon 2 sound and drive system.
    If anyone has any first hand knowledge of the Paragon 2 line please post some information for the rest of us. Keep in mind that this is not the old Blue Line loco like the first NW2 they offered.
    In conclusion, thanks to Friscotony for bringing this to my attention.

    Thanks Tony and Bob.

    This is great news. The phase IV had all those cool louvers in the doors that we weren't getting in the earlier Kato NW2. This fills a void in our roster that has been long overdue not to mention these were pretty cool units.
