    Apparently the “Fallen Flags”series of cars by Walthers has been cancelled. After a “heads up” comment, the Walthers website shows all “Fallen Flags” series cars for Missouri Pacific to be cancelled. This includes the Alco PA locomotive. You can check these numbers on the Walthers site: 920-13031, 920-15002, 920-15350, 920-17354, 920-15301, 920-15101, and 910-20059.

    A quick check of other roads in the series appear to be cancelled as well. There is no mention of the cancellation in the September Flyer. The Alco PA/PB are announced in (surprise) ATSF and PRR.

    Here’s a Walthers news release-

    We’re sorry to announce the cancellation of the entire Walthers Fallen Flags series due to the lack of orders. This includes all of the WalthersMainline® Alco PA-PB locos in the 910-20051 to 20062 series with SoundTraxx® Sound and Standard DC models in the 910-10051 to 10062 series. All WalthersProto® passenger cars planned for the series are also being cancelled.

    Now that was a short window of opportunity.
