Thanks for the up date, you have my order. Can you tell us, will there be any FP45's in the mini pack? You said six axle units didn't you, SD40-2, SD45, and..... FP45, true Milwaukee Road Power. Thanks, Skip

Just as small note for yah Chip. The front grab rails dont have chains. They were solid on most Milwaukee Road Locos. Here are some links showing it.

Good Morning, Fall colors coming to Northern Wisconsin, some of the colors bring up the thought of the Milwaukee Road Mini Pack. Any chance of an up date, better yet new shots of the power. I'm still hoping that one of the six axle units will be an FP45 http:www.rr-fallenflags.org/milw/milw4ads.jpg Will lbe looking for an up date. Thanks, Skip

Good Morning, we are well into a new year, I was wondering if we could get an up date on the Milwaukee Road Pack. Even better yet, some new shots of the work thus far. Thanks, Skip

Any up date on the Miwlaukee Road mini set. Is it me or has it been awfully quiet around here. No news , no up dates, and has been a while for a new release. Up date on Milwaukee Road would be appreciated. Thanks, Skip

Good Morning, is there any word, good or bad on the Milwaukee Road set that was to be developed. Very early on in postings we were given shots of units to be....possible for some type of up date. Thanks, Skip

Is the Milwaukee Road set a dead issue? I don't want to sound negative, but nothing is responded to when asked, thus nothing must be taking place with the set. Too bad, this is a road that no one has touched, one of the true fallen flags of the past. One can only hope....

Hope is a good thing. So is patience. I have a feeling that a lot of projects that have been on 'hold' will see daylight in the not too distant future...

I keep looking for that orange and black mini set. My hopes are high and I know that all good things are worth waiting for. Possible for any sneak peeks or up dates? Skip

Hey guys, when Chip has any news for you to consume I'm sure you'll be the first to know. No need to keep bumping the post hoping for a reply.

I'm sorry, but I've put this on indefinite hold -- currently the priorities are updating version 1.0 sets and creating some new locomotives by the end of the year.

Good Afternoon Chip, well thank you for the up date, not the best of news but at least news. Don't worry I won't stop getting your products, if the road is right, bingo you have a sale. Thanks again, Skip

I wouldn't be in too much of a hurry to dump the Milwaukee Road Mini Pack. With the up coming release of the Feather River Route wouldn't it be nice to see some Milwaukee Road run through power with the WP? Skip

I know we are all waiting with anticipation for the release of the WP Feather River Canyon Route. I'm sure that everyone is committed to building or testing their work at this stage and time frame of the route. When the cloud of dust settles with the passing of the first WP freight on Feahter River and most of us have already purchased the route would it be possible for someone to provide a status report on the Milwaukee Road Min Pack. It would be my hopes that this power would be developed when time permitts, I don't know what type of run through power traveled on the WP lines but I for one would like to run some Milwaukee Road power on the WP freights. Being from the Midwest I know about the Milwaukee Road in this area, but out at its Western Terminals I'm lost. Just thinking on the key board that it would be nice to see this power after everyone gets a rest from their hard work on the WP Feather River.

Well it looks like it's been coming up on two years since there was a post. Any sort of update or did they go out the window, because I am now looking for some MILW power.

As Chip stated - "indefinite hold", which you can take to mean that there are other priorities.
