NASG Convention in Lowell, MA was a great success...
Thank you to everyone who purchased models from us at the convention!! The convention is now history, but not soon forgotten.  It was well ran and offered something for everything.  If you want to see what you missed or want to relive parts of the convention, click here for more about the convention...

Circle Keystone X29 versions shipping again...
The Circle Keystone versions are shipping again!!  All remaining X29s are in our hands.  Unfortunately, the modifications made by the builder are not working to our satisfaction.  In order to get past these issues and to meet our customers expectations, we have purchased a milling machine and are making the modifications ourselves.  We have had to design and have built milling fixtures to hold the X29s and trucks to make the necessary modifications.  This is far beyond the level of effort we intended to exert to bring an X29 to the S scale community.  Nonetheless, we will see this project to completion.

Merchandise Service and Shadow Keystone X29 versions...
The artwork for the Merchandise Service and Shadow Keystone versions were completed earlier this year.  Our first Shadow Keystone X29s recently shipped after getting the necessary modifications mentioned above.  Merchandise Service will be the last version shipped as it requires special decaling techniques in order to get the scheme correct.  Once complete, those that purchased one, will say it was worth the wait.

G26s arrive at PSM...
All ordered G26 and G26a gondolas are now at PSM.  The decals were completed earlier this year and several customers who purchased convention specials have already decaled their G26s.  We are currently focusing on the remaining X29s and will concentrate on the G26 as soon as possible.  We want to make sure we have cars completed before offering them for sale.  Several S scalers have put a deposit down with the understanding that the X29s must be completed first.  The G26s will happen as we already have the cars, decals and are fully capable of painting them.  For those interested in a G26 and understand our present X29, please click the G26 Pricing link and scroll to the bottom.  There you will see a link to download the order form.

Thank you for your continued patronage and understanding.  If at anytime you have questions about Pennsy S Models or our projects, please don't hesitate to email us.
