With the reserved price finishing a few weeks ago, does that mean the
"T" will be shipping soon from Powerline ? I'll admit I didn't get a
$199 pre-delivery price and will have to pay the extra for one. But I'm
stil happy to wait to see it in the shops.....then I'l decide.

It's coming, presumably, from the same place in China that produces most of
the locos for Austrains, etc. so the advertised delivery time should have
been far enough in advance that it should arrive off the boat not far off
when originally advised.

Should be a really good model though - it's about time Powerline picked up
their game again after the company's been through a lot of changes with
Roger Jones selling it off and the company shifting interstate.

Powerline use a different factory to Austrains, Eureka & Trainorama. The
factory that does the latter 3 will not make the same model for more than
one company (business/producer/importer or whatever you want to call them)

There's no sign of a factory painted Powerline T sample at Trainworld yet so
delivery will still be a while away.
