Marc,

Th MTH shipping schedule shows it should have shipped in October. Call MTH Customer Service for an update.

barry,
many thanks!! your advice was "on the money".
as an f.y.i... no information is available, but regina (the mth voice) was pleasant and is doing some research for me.
again, i thank you, and wish upon you love and peace.

My guess is no time in the near future.

They have been delayed more than twice. The original delivery date was October of last year.

I've got two of the convention SD70Ace's on pre-order that I'm just about to cancel. I get a bit miffed that the PS2 versions of the same engine were delivered this past May.

AN UPDATE!!!

i received a phone call from regina at m.t.h., and the word is that the horn/bell engines will be delivered to our LHSs in january. since i am such a cynic and a skeptic, i asked several questions and threw in a few "native new yorker" comments. she stated unequivocally that they are currently in production, and WILL be shipped.

if anyone else is interested, i'll keep you posted as i find out "stuff".
