Commerial IAIS Models and Parts

Recently (late 2005/early 2006), Atlas produced two of the Iowa Interstate GP38s in HO scale. These are the only prepainted IAIS locomotive models commercially available. There are also a few commercially-available freight cars, and certainly the detail part business is essential to making Iowa Interstate modeling feasible. This page is an effort to highlight what's available and help those manufacturers that are, in turn, helping us.
