With no update from Broadway-Limited recently on the pre-orders for the HO scale Brass-Hybrid UP Early Challengers, I wasn’t expecting them in Dec 2021. I was only hoping to get the FEF’s in by Christmas and the Challengers by end of Jan 2022. But this week my pre-order was processed and it arrived two days later!
(UPDATE: 12/28/21) While breaking in the engine, a smoke unit capacitor popped after only 60 sec of testing the smoke. I’ve sent it back for repair and will take 2-3 weeks to get it back.
