Post by: argsilverson on July 22, 2009, 04:38:18 PM

Just now I received the newsletter by Copplestone.
He has released a complete armoured train:

Apparently it's the old HLBS one, but whoever sculpted it, it's still a beautiful and desirable thing!

I would like to know if the trains are compatible with the ones that are offered by Brigade Games.  If so, I'm there dude.

Excellent. This is the same Austro-Hungarian armored train I had hoped to get someone to grab for me at Salute.

Mark did say a couple of weeks(?) ago that there were only 3-5 trains remaining, depending on whether people bought the smaller or larger train.  I would presume they have now all sold.  :-[

He did say that he'd be having more cast up in a few weeks, or at least that was the implication.
