Hi Folks,
This may be taken several different ways, but I assure you I am simply 
searching for information.
Earlier this year the Amarillo Railroad Museum produced a Broadway Limited C&S 
HT-10C hopper, the same as the Q Connection CB&Q HT-10 cars (same price too).  
The models are accurate and carry the correct paint scheme.  

What is worrisome is that to date we have sold 1 out of 240.

We have had great response in the past for our Ft W & D custom cars and assumed 
a C&S offering would be welcome.

We’ve done our usual advertising and selling outlets (our website and eBay). So 
we haven’t cut back on exposure.
I know summer is usually slow for orders, but we usually get a few before 
interest picks up in the fall.

I’d like to get thoughts about interest in the C&S.  Maybe this was the wrong 
railroad to choose.
Is there a problem perceived with the models?
Considering we are doing the same publicity, is there something we are missing 
with these cars?

Again, this is not a rant or a plea, but I am trying to figure out what is 
going on.

Thanks,

Jerry Michels
