Pre-Order FAQ - Applies to all pre-orders

The price shown is the total price. A deposit of 5% of the total price will be required at the time of pre-order. Add the item to cart to pay 5% down. When multiple pre-orders are placed at the same time, each pre-order will be invoiced as it arrives. Similarly, if pre-orders from different orders, placed at different times, arrive at the same time, they will all be paid for and shipped together.

Only billing address is entered when placing the pre-order, as in-store pickup or shipping method and address are entered only when the items are ready to ship. To ensure safety and security, note that we never store payment information. Payment is entered again by the customer at time of arrival, with any method we offer, which can be different from the method used to place the 5% deposit.

Any 5% deposit will not be refunded if the customer chooses to cancel a pre-order or doesn't make full payment when it arrives. Exceptions can be made if and only if the manufacturer, wholesaler, shipper, or us, cause any extenuating circumstances that lead us to being unable to fulfill the pre-order. These cases are extremely rare and we take great strives to assure that any pre-order placed under our 5% deposit strategy will be fulfilled fully.

Note that the estimated arrival date found near the 'add to cart' button is just that, an estimate given by either the manufacturer, or when the manufacturer does not give a date, estimated by our staff based on prior experience with that manufacturer and their release timeline. We are not responsible for manufacturers delaying releases.

Please note that pre-orders placed before the 'Pre-Order Due Date', found at the top of the description on each pre-order's product page, ensure that we reserve the desired quantities through the manufacturer before they confirm each production batch or 'run' size. Pre-orders placed after the due date are allocated strictly from extra inventory only, and therefore may or may not be available at the desired quantities or road numbers. Pre-order items that no longer have any extra inventory to reserve are shown as 'Out of stock'. To ensure you secure what pre-order items you need, place your pre-orders before their due date. Pre-orders will be accepted after their due date until extra inventory is sold out.

When your pre-orders arrive, you will receive an email requesting payment that will contain all arrived items and deduct the 5% deposit already paid. This email will bring you to checkout, where you can spend or earn points and pay with any payment method we offer. If you believe your pre-order has arrived but did not receive any email, please check your spam folder and contact us. You can always check the status of your current pre-orders by navigating to the 'Preorder Status' page which is found at the bottom of the home page. Once there, enter your email address or phone number and any order number of any pre-orders you have placed. You can also pay for any arrived pre-orders from this page. We ask that any pre-orders that have arrived are paid within 2 weeks of receiving notification of arrival. Thank you.

Product Specific Information:

Broadway Limited Imports is proud to expand our line of HO-scale Union Pacific passenger cars with the heavily requested Howard Fogg, a must-have if you model steam excursions.

The Howard Fogg has served on many of UP’s steam excursions and stands out on the Heritage Fleet roster as the railroad’s last remaining boiler car.

Built in 1949 by American Car & Foundry as baggage-dormitory No. 6006, the car was converted to boiler-baggage-dorm No. 304 in 1962. It was renumbered No. 209 in 1987 and assigned to the UP Heritage Fleet in 1990. In 1996, it was named Howard Fogg in honor of the renowned railroad artist following his passing. In 2000, the car was converted to boiler-dorm-HEP (Head End Power), adding an electric generator to supply power to the passenger cars.

The Howard Fogg is still used by the UP Steam Team. Its onboard steam generator can provide steam when maintenance is required while No. 844 or No. 4014 is on the road, and it also supported No. 3985 when that locomotive was part of UP’s excursion roster. For the crew’s use on extended trips, the car includes three sleeping rooms, a shower, a laundry room, and a small lounge area.

In this first production run, we are offering the Howard Fogg in three era-specific appearances: 1997–2004, 2010–2019, and 2021–2026. A fourth version will feature the America250 artwork, accurately matching the car’s appearance during Big Boy No. 4014’s cross-country tour. For something different, we are also offering a Two-Tone Gray fantasy appearance, a scheme the car never wore in real life but one that pairs perfectly with other two-tone gray equipment. For those who want a personalized touch, a primer-gray version is also available, perfect for painting and customizing to match your own railroad. All versions will be available with or without sound, and the prototype-based versions include era-specific details.
