Reply to "American Flyer GP7 FlyerChief Info"

Hi all. Hope everyone is having a nice weekend.

I will relay all road name suggestions to Ryan. He's the one who chooses that.

The SGSU (S-Gauge Smoke Unit) is what we put in AF engines for smoke. As previously stated, it is too wide to fit inside the narrow hood of this engine. That is why it was left out.

We are planning on having a sample for April York. The factories are working hard for us for all new samples.

This GP was redesigned with the intent to be an American Flyer product, not a highly detailed scale product. We have done some fantastic engines in the past (Challenger, SD70Ace, etc) but those always come with the price to match. FlyerChief is intended for running fun trains and getting people interested in the hobby without having to put in a large amount of money.

I was unaware of the coupler issue. This has risen up high on my priority list of things to look at. For those who commented, could you please email me more details? My email is in my profile.

Thanks again!
