Chuck Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 MTH posted this on their Facebook page a few days ago...hmmm I'd say they just "hinted" at what's in the next catalog! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry B44 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Wow! Would have thought 4014 would have been the one displayed. Ray, remember the parts I need! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamPower4ever Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 According to spur1info.com, the Big Boy with ProtoSound 3 is indeed on display at the toy fair in Nürnberg. It's announced as a 2014 new item. Catalog number 70-3026-1 according to a pic on the subscriber page. Lower wheel flanges to run on European track. Working steam whistle.

Chuck Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Hmm...That item number doesn't come up on the MTH website. Smoking whistle great!! I'll order 10 please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamPower4ever Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 It's not on the website, no, but I read recently (was it an MTH reply to a comment on the facebook page) that the entire site is due for an overhaul very soon, which is probably why they're not bothering to update much. The Dash-8s are still listed for shipment in December '14. Jens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteamPower4ever Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 As I wrote elsewhere, the new MTH web site is up. Dash-8s in March. F7s in June. Jens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markoles Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 The website is updated, but there appear to be discrepancies on deliveries. Some of the F7s appear to be arriving in March, for example.I hope they are going to be at the ECLSTS this year. I'd like to see the diesels in action.

Jerry B44 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Strange if they don't go to the ECLSTS this year and show some of their stuff. With the demise of Aristo they have a good chance to get going again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markoles Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 They didn't go to the ECLSTS in 2014, and I think they were not there in 2013, either. I remember the last couple of times they had a booth there, their trains made slow, lazy loops with music being pumped through the speakers, rather than train sounds.

SteamPower4ever Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Now some of the Fs are bumped until July and I can't even find the SF B units on the list. Brimalm of Sweden should pass the cup for delays and wackiest shipping schedule to MTH Anyway, I'm perfectly happy with having ordered an additional B unit and while I wait, I have fun with El Cap and Super Chief and F3s and F7s on my emerging N scale layout at home.
