Here's the news as I heard it Friday. These are my interpretations and
not those of Challenger. I'm just trying to get everyone more info.
The Hart Ballast cars are coming in 2 versions-soon.
The O3 2-8-2 has no stock number yet, future project.
The following items are TENTATIVELY scheduled pending receipt of more
reservations and other considerations. There are other projects that
are taking precedence over these for now INCLUDING the O5s. If I had
to place a well educated guess, this project is 1 year, more or less,
away.
Twin City Zephyr with interiors
9902 with interior
Mark Twain Zephyr- Original & rebuilt with interior
Pioneer Zephyr- Original & rebuilt with interior
I would suggest, merely my opinion for whatever that's worth, that
instead of bombarding Challenger with emails, send a well written
letter or fax to them. Hard copy receives more attention. Every
importer is jammed on time. I know this sounds trite-but that's why
they have dealers. Importers and manufacturers respect and solicit the
opinions of their customers. But I can tell you that if we state our
opinions and suggestions in a letter, it will go 10x's further. Make
it as painless as professionally possible for them to receive your
thoughts and ideas.
Now that I've gotten this stirred up, I'll heat the water and look for
a Bay Le
