From: Alan Lambert Fort Worth, Texas Rich, Blame that on AM's webmaster. That is who usually changes website features, does updates . Another strong feature from train shows, or know a local dealer(club member of Lone Star Flyer club) that displade the new stuff. My local hobby shops do not carry any new S stuff. Most of mine was over the internet (SHS). Alan Lambert

They come out with a new roadname and don't put it up on the website. It was almost a year before the Texas Special, MP and SP E8's and passeneger cars were listed online.
