Hi, it’s been a year since I ordered and paid for the car. I just checked the “shop” and it says it’s “in stock”. Does this mean you have it in hand and it’s being shipped?  Thanks in advance, Craig |

I have a question. I looked at my account and all my orders including the OGF Engine say awaiting processing. How long is Awaiting processing and shouldn't the engine show as already being shipped?

We will get an update and report back. Remember that after the club cars arrive they then need to get decals/painted.

The latest from MTH is that the MTH production schedule for the Flats with PUP Trailers has moved again (the entire production run of 21 different paint schemes) is now a June build. This would mean an August arrival. (Ten months since the original forecast delivery month of November 2022). Once we receive the blanks (Undecorated) cars we will send them right away to paint/decals. This should mean a Fall arrival of the finished product.
I don't pretend to understand the reasons for the huge delays in the factory production schedule. I know they are common. Handling a little project like these Club Cars has given me a new appreciation for the aggravation these manufacturers and Dealers have to go through. I'm glad this isn't my day job. My blood pressure couldn't handle it.
Whenever they do finally arrive, I think they are going to be great. I can't wait to receive mine.

Hello to those in-the-know about the 2022 OGF Club Car,
Just a friendly follow-up to check status on the OGF 2022 flatcar w/PUPs and where the project stands. I've received a few items from Lionel recently, and it seems OBS dates to warehouse receipt are now pushing 3 months on the water vs. what was often 2 months. So I suspect MTH and Atlas are experiencing similar shipment timelines. In any event, I'm curious if these cars have arrived stateside... and if so, are they being decorated now? Can we expect them in 2023? Thanks!!!

Just thinking out loud….
There are numerous versions of these MTH flat cars with pup trailers already delivered to hobby shops. Since ours are being custom painted anyway, why couldn’t one of the available cars been painted? Did we lose the contracted painter?

Bottom line… the problem isn’t finding existing product to redecorate. The real crux of the problem is where are the cars MTH was scheduled to deliver to OGF in the first place.

The last update from MTH has our blank cars either arriving or just off the boat. We expect to receive them by the end of the month and will send them to the painter the same day we receive them. They are still available in the OGF Shop.

Think I have them all so far: the loco, the covered hopper, and the caboose.
That’s it…right?
