- Question .. isn't this model a LIGHT mikado? I thought the Q's mikes were strictly heavies. I'm not certain of this but somewhat confident. Lyle Dowell <snip>

- I'm a pretty average modeler. Refer to myself as more "typical" than "prototypical". I got lucky with the Athearn 2-8-2. A friend of my in the Hobby Shop business (who is a C&O rather than CB&Q model

- The Q USRA mikes are heavy, Class O-4 #5500-5514. The Athern I saw was nubered 49XX (forget) which was an O-1. Ken Martin

- Gee, I kinda like my Kato NW2. Gotta lose that Scotchlite striping, though. Yuck! --jh Regarding Q mikes -- patience. Sooner or later someone will bring out a decent-running, well-detailed heavy USR

- Tom -- I wouldn't worry too much about more "basic" designs being forced out. So long as modelers demand and are willing support such models, I think it's fairly safe to say manuafactures will contin

- The messages about the above topic have been very interesting to read. I feel if you're paying $150.00 for a locomotive, you should get a $150.00 locomotive, not a $50.00 locomotive. I have never see

- Most of you will have a collection of Kalmbachs MR mags. Athearn's light Mikado was elected the Product of the Year 1999. Take the August issue of 2000, page 62 and find a pice of art in Steve Orth's

- In defense of Athearn- my comment about them using White lettering on their Geneses CB&Q 2-8-2 was not meant to bash Athearn as a company. I remember seeing company builders photos of new CB&Q steam
