They are listed as “needing reservations.”
I think someone at intermountain told me they need 90 reservations to break even producing a given boxcar scheme. I don’t know if it’s the same for locomotives, but really, I can’t imagine interest worldwide in 90 MP FT unit sets, as much as I want them.
They did run the original grey and yellow Cotton Belt scheme years ago. Beautiful. Apparently a bad decision for intermountain. They were the last ones in remaining stock. I got an ABBA set for near half price. Got em to run on a now gone club that closed down before I ever had a chance to run them. They are still unopened.
