I’m so glad you guys are continuing the AMD 103’s as a Genesis product and also creating new runs every year. Us Amtrak fans greatly appreciate it there aren’t many other companies that produce high quality and accurate P40/P42’s so this is a relief and was well overdue for many!
you guys should do a model of the 109 in Phase V. to my knowlege it is the last P42DC as of 2024 to still have the original as-delivered nose configuration. and also a run of the P32AC-DM used on Amtrak Empire Service and Metro-North with an AC prime mover and third rail shoe.
I recommend some undecorated models. I want to do a few 40th anniversary units. I also have a couple of the recently released P40 that I can't get the emergency light to work on the DCC/sound equipped models I have.
When could we see Amtrak models for their different passenger trains? It would be fantastic if Athearn offered the "Cresent" for example. Kato did the Auto Train in N-scale
We can look into it if we get enough requests but it will depend on licensing. The Veterans association in Canada did not want us to make that unit in HO so our hands were tied.

Please contact our service techs at athearnhelp@horizonhobby.com so we can get those functions working.
I second the suggestion for an undecorated model. Want to run some metro north heritage units 😍
Excellent video Jim!
Thank you, glad you found it informative! ~ Jim
Maybe some Athearn Genesis Viewliners??
Once we get the Surfliners and California cars done, we'll see, but we have had a lot of request for those.
PRE-ORDER | Next Shipment April 2025
HO Surfliner Cars with Lights & Sound, Amtrak (5 ??????????????
I'm waiting on surfliners too, original ETA was August 2022 🤦♂️
We are trying to get these out by late 2024.

That is a good idea and something we may consider in the future.
I have 4 of these preordered.
Thank you for your business!
69 is now in Phase VII
We heard right after the video was made. We'll see more units painted soon I'm sure.
Jim I know how about a Legendary Liveries CalTrain P42DC in the Genesis for ones in the future they would look sharp and pretty in the red
We have a lot of prototype schemes we want to do first, but Legendary Liveries is always an option for the future.
Got the via rail to pick up with French wording
Good to hear!
You need a Canada 150 wrap P42 to replace the Veterans one that was cancelled !
They should of done the 109 since it’s the last P42 to have it’s original nose
We can look into it if we get enough requests but it will depend on licensing. The Veterans association in Canada did not want us to make that unit in HO so our hands were tied.
