RPP is showing $183.96, nothing on Tower yet at this time. This would be a nice addition to my Garden railway. |

Ya it's showing out of stock, but I think it's because it was just released, they may be taking pre-orders. The railroad is G scale at 1/22.5, modeling a narrow gauge short line, non-prototypical. The engines almost dwarf my 1/24 cars, but they still work. If you go to the Large Scale Rigs section, page 2, "New Project (for me)" post #162, on page 9, you can see the benchwork. |

Nice train layout, Mike. I ordered my Ambush directly from Proline. They show that they are available now. Guess we'll see. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Mine shipped FedEx today (for free from Proline direct). The email says it will be delivered on Saturday. The receiver has a 3rd channel available. Proline's website gives the immpression that there will be accessories coming. |

Is it a bad sign that I'm already wondering which one of my light bars would fit on the top? Haven't even ordered one and pondering the upgrades. I have the sickness. |

Looked at it more and looks like it the leaf spring mounts on the axle housing could be cut down by about half height to lower ride height too. |

That office crawl course was epic. I wonder how long that took to make. I was just looking at my desk at work wondering what it could climb here.

My observations, it appears to be a bit top heavy, suspension and tires seem to be a bit hard, but what are your conclusions, and what can be done to improve the suspension and tires?
