"The Atlas O Multi-Max represents one of our most ambitious and challenging O scale rolling stock models to date. Due to the difficulties that Atlas encountered during the design of the high quality end door details, Atlas found it necessary to have the doors glued shut. This was not an easy decision, but multiple engineers and test shipments all indicated that to maintain the integrity of this model, without shipping or handling damage, secured doors were our best option. To prevent damage, please do not attempt to open them. Thank you for your understanding and support. "
Unfortunately, we could not find a way to consistently keep the door and hinge assembly intact during shipment, having gone through multiple modifications of the car and the packaging design.
The separate sale inner decks have not been shipped, as there is currently no application for them. We will continue to look for solutions for future production.
Thank you for the update, Paul. I can't wait to receive mine. I know they're going to be beautiful models.
