Description

Make-up Run – Announcing an extremely small run of custom decorated SP&S F-7 #803

This is the same release as done in 2023, when the factory underproduced our purchase order.

This selection comes ‘STEALTH’ (DC) and is a deposit only, for SP&S 803. You will receive a final billing when delivery is close. This deposit will be applied to the total cost, which we anticipate to be close to $209.

Offered in the hour glass scheme which it wore in one form or another from its delivery in 1948 until the Broad Stripe paint was applied in 1968.  We offer this F unit at the same time as the GP-9 passenger units as it was not uncommon for them to be seen together in a consist. Also of note, a typical SP&S passenger train on the water-level route along the Columbia River, would only need two units to pull that train of about 9 to 13 cars.

Expect this run  of SP&S 802 & 803 in late 2024

Please reserve now to assure you get this special engine!

I look forward to continuing to buy trains from my favorite special run train maker. That’s how I think of you now, “The Train Maker”.  And speaking of cool trains, I just received a box loaded with great looking Texas Special cars. Thanks.  I certainly look forward to all the new releases you are planning.

P.B.

Thanks for all the great trains – it’s nice to have such wonderful rolling stock on the layout.

B.L.

Thank you ever so much for being such an integral part of the model railroading hobby!

“You seem to be the shining light in an industry that’s seen a lot of change since the early 2000’s when I was last in the hobby”.

Thanks, Lowell, for another awesome addition to an already incredible train.

Keep up setting the bar high and providing a product that exceeds expectations.

Ferdinand Magellan is great! This really fits your mission of offering significant cars that otherwise wouldn’t be produced.

I got my new Santa Fe business cars, they are superb and worth the wait ten times over.

I received my observation/business car today and – like all of my other cars from you – I love it!
