I am with you, which is why I asked again. MTH did an excellent job with their Amfleets, especially the last run which fixed that dreadful dark blue paint. I 'try' not to be a rivet counter, but it just seems wrong to me to model an Amtrak train where the Amfleet is the same length as the baggage cars. I run the Atlas Horizons at the moment, as they are the best Amtrak scale-length cars available IMHO. However, Horizons did not frequent the Northeast (including the Keystone/Harrisburg lines, where my modelling interests lie) and look a little odd with AEM7s. It wasn't unheard of to see them however, and I'll take that over non-scale-length cars. I would probably unload them and the MTH cars with inaccurate paint once the GGD Amfleets arrive.
Hopefully Scott and Co. can get the reservation site updated soon; I would like to get my name on a set. I agree that with those updates and perhaps a word to Nicholas Smith, Western Depot, etc., there should be sufficient orders to proceed.
