In response to: Amtrak Northeast Corridor Package
Posted on: 02/16/2011 06:44:43 PM
The packages won't be released until this Summer. The Acela Package won't be released until January 2012 or so. This is after a few more Acela sets are purchased by Amtrak.
The HHP-8 and AEM-7 will be released this Summer.
The ACS-64 will come twice:
A Rendering version will arrive this Fall.
The final version will arrive May 2012 or so.
The full set will arrive next year.

This is the motherload package.
I am starting work on the Acela, HHP-8, AEM7, and the upcoming ACS-46. These will be the powermovers of the new Northeast Corridor Package.
HHP-8
------------------
The HHP-8 Pack will include the 21 running on the NEC.
Each is highly detailed and a later version will include pantographs that operate, but the first pack won't.
A MARC HHP-8 pack will arrive shortly after.
AEM-7
--------------------------
The AEM-7 pack will include all of the locomotives that are running on the NEC. A heritage set will be included with all of the phases of the AEM-7.
The AEM-7 will first be available without operating pantographs, but a later version will.
ACS-64
-----------------------
The ACS-64 will go into service with Amtrak in 2013. So this model will come with the pack when the pack is released. A stand alone release will come soon.
The ACS-64 will simply be a rendering model until more images are given.
Acela
-------------------------
The Acela pack will come with all 25 Acela trainsets running the NEC. The pack will also come with two extra trainsets with the original Acela paint job.
Here's the expected pricing:
HHP-8 Pack-$10.00
AEM-7 Pack-$10.00
ACS-64 Pack-$5.00
Acela Pack-$50.00
A package that includes the above and custom railcars will be around $75.00.
