Reply to "NEW ATLAS CATALOG-NO 4750S"

HIBAR,

Thank you for the pic's and info on the CSX 4427's.

I checked out Mr. muffin's website,but the cars still look grey to me. The car numbers,looked screwy to me as soon as I saw them,as I see these numbers mostly on 4600 CSX cvd hoppers,as well as the 254000 series.  This is a pretty bad blunder by Atlas. They usually do well on car series.

The "EASE UP HANDLE CAR WITH CARE" logo on the car ends as well as the reflector stripes would've been fine additions to dress up a Master Series hopper. Another mistake.

Atlas is beginning to sound like Intermountain in HO-they're businessmen NOT modelers. I don't know who I talked to at Atlas years back when I mentioned shelf couplers,but I was told,"I'm interested in products that make money,only" Not a great philosophy to follow.

Just my opinion of course.

As Always,

Al Hummel
