@Dave NYC Hudson PRR K4 posted:Not my cup of tea Alex, but it is stunning to say the least. When I pop to the train store today, going to ask if it is supposed to be weathered since it looks like it. Ryan and Dave said yesterday they believed 2790 was the prototypical one that is to be weathered.
Well, I got nothing unfortunately. I talked to Tony my local dealer, and it appears Lionel has flubbed once again with distribution. This time they got the catalogs out, but not the order sheets. Tony also pointed out that weathered locomotives are usually more expensive. So, I sent out an email to hopefully get a definite answer about what is being weathered and not.
