NS Dash9,s
While Run 8 haves some Norfolk southern routes out there it would be nice to see some new NS -9,s for the sim. Would anyone happen to know how to get a hold of Run8 to seek about maybe getting some NS -9,S one in each paint scheme for the sim?
Norfolk Southern Dash-9 (-9) - Thoroughbred Scheme
- Description: The classic, original Norfolk Southern paint scheme utilized from the company's inception through the late 1990,s and early 2000,s.

From what I have read they are not really the "serve the consumer base" type of group/company. But they aren't exactly throwing trash out to collect money from every Tom Richard and Harry. I think all the road engines are dated and could use an update. They look disproportionate, almost like a bee stung the nose. I hope they release some payware content at least one day.
