Good loco, proven workhorse. I hope it comes with the new Aristo wheel contour with the improved flanges, like the last Dash 9's.
The high hoods will be hard to get in the future...

Just checked the Aristo site..
$410 is "10% off"??
wow..I guess it would be bad for business if they were honest and said "10% *higher* than a year ago"!

Yeah, a proven loco, but is this a $410 locomotive? Sure seems that prices have increased....
I see Dash 9's for about $370 .... and Robbie has the SD45's for $410 on his site every day.
Maybe the bigger dealers can have parity with the direct sales?

at $410.oo each...
This does not cover any everyday versions - all out of stock, still..
For over 400 bucks I sure hope the locos include things like lights, railings, motor blocks and wheels.... seems allot is missing in the presented pix online.......mmm

Oh yeah, they will be complete.. and like I said, if they put the updated wheels on them, there is a big improvement in running, correct flange thickness, correct back to back and gauge.
My Dash 9 has them and it runs very well.

Are you with Aristo Craft?

To me, Dick sounded like he was a dealer or with Aristo.
I just didn't know.
That's all.

Randy if you were on the Aristo forum, you'd find that the denizens might be giving you a blow by blow of even the unloading of the container at Aristo.
Got an email today from Aristo about the container arriving. Since they do direct shipments, and that some people are very keen to get a high hood, the "news" can be very detailed...

Good to know, I tried to get them to answers Gregs Q about that on Aristo forum, but someone else posted it
I am hoping the shipment to Kidmans (from Aristo) will arrive before this next weekends train show so I can bring home an MRL unit to go with my other one.
Like I "need" another engine.
