I talked to Lowell Smith ( RailSmith Models ) at the National Train Show today. He has two new Frisco Passenger related announcements for us n-scalers First, Lowell is working with Wheels Of Time to produce Frisco Baggage cars for his version of the Meteor. Wheels of time has released Frisco baggage cars before, but this release includes 3 new numbers ( 384 as a single and 382 and 370 as a pair ) and, for the first time, includes one of the Clerestory roof cars. https://www.wheelsotime.com/special-railsmith-models/ Second, Railsmith is having specially produced EA7s from Broadway Limited available with and without sound. These locomotives will have the as delivered fluted sides. for this particular run, Lowell is having the two Katy engines for the Texas Special produced. The two Paragon 4 reservations are here: https://lowellsmith.net/product/texas-special-e7-100-w-dcc-sound/ and https://lowellsmith.net/product/texas-special-e7-101-w-dcc-sound/ The two Stealth Series reservations are here: https://lowellsmith.net/product/texas-special-e7-101-stealth-dc/ and https://lowellsmith.net/product/texas-special-e7-101-a-stealth-dc/ I am really excited about the new EA7s, since these are Frisco/Katy specific locomotives. I expect Lowell to eventually release most, if not all, of the Frisco units.
