enginear joe Posted April 28, 2016 Author Share Posted April 28, 2016 Well................???? at least they made the others so there must be something being fine tuned? Maybe they delayed the SF models in hopes that the market could absorb more models released over a longer period? I don't know what to say so I'm just rambling on!

blid Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Jens, while you wait you might go for the super compact Danish ABA all in one version, ESU item 30220. Just trying to cheer you up. I have been there too and am still waiting for a H0 engine since 2012. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamPower4ever Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Ah, the Strabag warbonnet I had high hopes when I first heard that one of the Nohabs was going to be painted like that. Unfortunately I don't like the final result very much. If I should a get one of the compact ABAs (brilliant name for it) it would be the classic DSB maroon. However, many of the guys are getting one, so I'll pass. Waiting since 2012 ??? Wow, poor guy. That must be a Brimalm model you're waiting for. Their shipping schedules are really off the charts, but at least they stay mum all the time. Jens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blid Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 No I was referring to MTH 1-gauge and H0 3-rail.For the one since 2012 the first shipping date was Feb 2013. Now it is Mar 2016, whenever that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enginear joe Posted August 7, 2016 Author Share Posted August 7, 2016 I opened up both of my NWSL trucks. One was full of grease. The other was dry. I imagine the dry one would not last very long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamPower4ever Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I'm going to open them up anyway as I need to separate the current pickup leads from motor power. They'll get a service while I'm at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamPower4ever Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Not too long ago I sent a mail to Kristin at MTH asking if she knew about the arrival of the Santa Fe F7s. To my surprise, she said they were en route and should arrive at MTH on September 5th. Today. Any takers on a bet the consignment was handled by Hanjin Shipping?

Rayman4449 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Don't see them listed as in-stock but the info you have is very specific so they are probably close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamPower4ever Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Assuming the shipment does arrive today, they probably need to inspect and test them before listing. If it's a full shipping container, there's probably lots of other stuff in it. Nothing to do about it either way. They arrive when they arrive, but yes - it was surprisingly specific info.

SteamPower4ever Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 It would seem that hell just froze over. Just got a mail from Kirstin at MTH saying that the Santa Fe F7s are currently being inspected at MTH and will trickle out to dealers soon. COOL !!!

We do in fact have a lottery, but for most people it's just a tax for having no sense of statistics At least with this order I've had probable cause for hoping that eventually they'd ship something. Man, I've been thinking about cancelling many times ... but I'm glad I didn't. Jens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteamPower4ever Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Here is the MTH release list for the week of September 4th. The F7s are on the list - among other things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman4449 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 The Santa Fe F7s are in-fact arriving with some that arrived yesterday. All were still in-stock as of yesterday afternoon but this morning the F7 single A unit isn't listed for online order so that unit may be sold out already. As expected there does seem to be a lot of interest in this set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
