talking to my supplier, i was informed that, yes indeed, the MTH Hudson has FINALLY made its arrival in the good ol’ US of A!!! :^D :^D :^D THIS is the steam model we (my wife and i) have been waiting/longing for!!! forget the pacifikado, forget the USAT Hudson, the MTH Hudson is THEE model we have been waiting for!!! Basically what this means to me, is when i do finally start work again (Lord i pray it will be soon after the 1st of the year) a MTH Hudson will be adorning my “show-off shelf”, at least untill i get some track down outside…i’m telling y’all, i am on pins and needles!!! Supposedly, SOME will be on the shelves BEFORE Christmas next week!!! i am as excited for those of you that will receive one from ‘santa’, as i am about the prospect of me finally getting one!!! dont hold back fellas…give all of us a complete review…
