The reprints of the UTLX book have arrived and ordering (and shipping) can commence! I also have five kits of the GN stock cars available.

For those interested parties, I am at work to make some old and some new things available as soon as possible. I will provide details as soon as I am confident that there will be no hiccups or delays. Please stay tuned and be patient!

For you web heads, I am in the process of updating the PHP for the site to eliminate any pesky messages about compatibility, etc.

These are Sunshine Models kits for sale. If the inventory shows as “zero” then it’s gone! Please don’t email asking me to hold items or if it’s still available.

It’s been an extremely quiet summer for me on the modeling and Speedwitch fronts. My day job has been as demanding as ever and family commitments have kept me busy. There is one update to share. At some point in the next few weeks, I will take down the entire “Models” portion of the site as I figure out a refresh, including how to manage the previous offerings as well as new projects. That said, there are a few things that are still available, but only for the next few weeks. Part of the refresh may involve mothballing previous projects indefinitely, as my other commitments make it difficult for me to stay on top of the models portion of Speedwitch. Here is what you can get at the moment, although some supplies are limited:

• K118 – SP/T&NO A-50-4 Single Sheathed Auto Cars
• P100 – Seaboard Air Line Class AF-3 Auto Car Doors
• P101 – Soo Line 75800-series Auto Car Doors
• P102 – AAR 65’6″ Gondola Postwar Dreadnaught Drop Ends
• P103 – 1932 ARA Box Car Doors with early Camel Roller Lift fixtures
• P106 – New York Central Stock Car board-by-board Roof
• P118 – Pressure Head Cylinder and Integral Lever Bracket (3 pieces)
• P119 – DT&I 7000-series 41′ Gondola with Decals
• P121 – New York Central 8′ 3-panel pre-war Youngstown doors
• P123 – 50′ Murphy Combination Rectangular-Diagonal Panel Roof (ATSF, SP)
