SHIPPING THIS MONTH – 4750 CUBIC FOOT HO HOPPER CARS

There will be eleven 4750 paint schemes shipping later this month. Seven of them have never been done before by InterMountain. Exceptional detail and laser sharp lettering are a dynamic combination for this model. These cars are seen everyday across the country as this prototype is one of the most widely used in the history of railroading. Six road numbers are available for each offering.

SHIPPING THIS MONTH – HO BI-LEVEL AUTO RACKS

Etched metal side panels make this model one of the most unique HO models ever produced. Light shining through these cars as they travel around a model railroad create an almost unbelievably realistic effect. These models are truly one of a kind. Be sure to get them early as there are limited quantities of the eight paint schemes available. All eight of the decorative schemes are being done for the first time in four road numbers. Each road name is equipped with the prototypically correct panels and placards to make them as realistic as possible.

HO & N SCALE F3A AND MATCHING F3B

It has been some time since we have announced the F3’s. Ten paint schemes are available for Advance Reservation in both HO and N scales for delivery in the Summer of 2015. Seven of the paint schemes are being done for the first time by InterMountain. All will be available in four numbers unless the owner had fewer locomotives in their fleet. In that case we will do all of the numbers available. These models are very colorful as the owners chose to show off their motive power with extraordinary designs and color combinations. Both HO and N scale locomotives will be available for DCC and sound operation.

VALUE LINE WOODCHIP GONDOLAS IN HO AND N SCALES

This is the first release of the woodchip gondolas in our new Value Line. They will be available in both HO and N scales and are scheduled for delivery in the Summer of 2015. These affordable, durable models are an excellent choice for unit train operation on a club layout or one of the many elaborate home layouts around the country.

HO PFE WOOD REFRIGERATOR CARS

This month we are bringing back a selection of these beautiful wood refrigerator cars. Advance Reservations will be accepted for R-30-18, R-40-19, and R-30-21 versions of this model. Because of its unique nature this car will only be done every few years. Be sure to get your reservations in early so you won’t miss this opportunity to model the PFE.

HO 20′ CONTAINERS

Because of the demand for containers in the HO model railroad hobby we have committed to systematically offer each of the twelve container models that InterMountain has available. This gives the modelers an opportunity to have a wide variation of containers on their intermodal fleet. Each of the eight offerings of 20′ containers this month is uniquely decorated with a colorful scheme. This makes it possible to equip a container train in a very realistic fashion.
