My first time doing regular via-dealer pre-orders, hastened by...well, you'll know by looking:
GGD:
--A pair of battleship gondolas
--5 Viewliners (baggage, crew-dorm, diner and two sleepers)
--an E60MA
2021 MTH Premier:
--Restoration Big Boy
2020 V2 MTH RailKing:
--Airslide hoppers (3) (now en-route)
2020 V2 MTH Premier:
--all-door boxcars (2)
--Corrugated autoracks (3)
--Flatcar with trash containers (2)
--5-unit Twin-Stack car
--Tank Car (Procor)
2020 V1 MTH Premier
--Plated passenger set (ATSF) 4-car, sleeper/diner pair, baggage/coach pair, RPO and full-vista
A big CHONK of change, but I charged up the slush fund to absorb most of the impact, aided by a lack of vacation travel in 2020. However, I don't see myself placing any more orders like this after 2021, since (a) I have almost everything I've ever wanted rolling-stock+motive-power wise, and (b) I'm playing train-box Tetris as it is.
