Uh, Yeah! Weaver is closed and gone. I too was going to reorder the set with the DLGE Single Stripe Freight version but alas, it didn't happen. Now I am kitbashing one with Williams RF16 Shells and PA-1 Drives just like the one below:

Don't forget at the time of this locos announcement, this $600.00 brass loco was expensive since MTH and Lionel diesels were at $400.00 fully loaded. Thats not so much for 2 railers but 3 railers it was a lot. Considering 3 railers commanded 75% of all O scale model purchases, the three railers lack of interest in reservations for a second run probably prompted Joe to cancel the production.
