For all you Big-Boy fans:
Monogram (purveyors of plastic models) has announced a non-functional
HO scale model of a Big-Boy. This will be rather like their previous
NYC J3a Hudson in construction. The good part is the proposed price:
$10.00 (that's ten dollars). If this comes to pass, it will be a
much cheaper way to get a Big Boy than to shell out $180+ for a running
model in any scale you care to name. It will supposedly be out in early
summer. (This info. comes from a trade newsletter published by the
Wm. K. Walthers company)
