All, I have not mentioned Pennsy S Models in a while. We are creeping forward albeit at a geriatric snails pace. PSM took a back seat for the most part last year because of me getting and working on my house. (It is 1 year ago tomorrow we "signed the papers." The year flew by!)
Dan updated the website JUST before we left for the convention. www.pennsysmodels.com Forming Pennsy S Models came directly from this list and "I wish we had". I wanted an X29 to the point of being an obsession and did not see anyone else making it at that time so I stepped up and tried to make it happen. I met Dan, and for good or for bad the rest is history. I don't claim our attempt at being in the brass importing business to be overly successful to date, but I DID try. S Scale is chocked full of rumored projects and deposits given with nothing ever produced. We never once considered abandoning what we set out to do even if it took 10+ years. I could never do my **friends** dirty that way. I have to be able to look you all in the eye at the conventions with a clear conscious. You quickly forget about how much FUN it is supposed to be when you have to do real work in making trains. If you have an X29 in your hands, I painted it. There are about 20 cars in stock or are shipped that I painted, then we sent back for detail error repairs and I painted them again when we got them back. Pennsy S Models is NOT done yet though. There is much more to be made for the Mighty PRR. Whatever we do will be MUCH different in terms of our physical involvement and a realistic delivery time. We will get the project in, spot check a few models and ship them out to the customers. That is how I hear it is supposed to happen, and it will happen for us or we won't do it.... stay tuned.
