January 2008 Winter Special In-Stock List

Dear Atlas Customer,

Atlas is warming up the cold 2008 winter season with a Winter Special on thousands of in stock N, HO and O scale locomotives and freight cars. Here’s how you can participate.
First take a look at the attached list for any freight car or locomotive that you may be interested in. Then contact your Atlas Hobby Store and tell him what you’d like to buy and ask for his best price. Atlas is offering volume discounts to distributors on all these products. Most dealers have been notified about the Atlas Winter Special, but since the offer just began, some may not have heard. Please be helpful and ask him to contact his Atlas distributor. He’ll appreciate your assistance!
As an added bonus, you can enter a special drawing directly from Atlas if you send us a copy of your purchase receipt for any locomotive or freight car bought off the Winter Special In-Stock List. Please have the dealer reference the Winter Special and item number on the receipt. Winners will be able to choose a locomotive or freight car off the list as their prize. What you get to pick depends on what you buy. If your receipt is for an N scale freight car and you win, you get to pick an N scale freight car; if you bought an O locomotive and win, you get to pick an O locomotive. This drawing will be held once a week during the promotion period and there will be a winner chosen in each category (locomotives and freight cars) in each scale (N, HO and O) for a total of six winners per week and 42 for the entirety of the promotion.

Entries may be faxed to 908-687-8852 or mailed to:
Atlas Model Railroad Company
c/o Winter Special Contest
378 Florence Avenue
Hillside, NJ 07205.

Item must be purchased off the Winter Special In-Stock list during the promotion period of February 4th-March 21st to be eligible. Only items off the Winter Special In-Stock list are eligible. Items must be shippable and in stock. Entries must be received during promotion period to be eligible. Please put your telephone number on your receipt along with Name, Address and Email Address so that we can get in touch with you if you win. Employees of Atlas Model Railroad Co., Inc. and Atlas O, LLC. and members of their families (spouses, parents, children, siblings and their spouses, aunts and uncles, etc.) are not eligible.
Winners will be selected through a random drawing by employees of Atlas Model Railroad Co. from all eligible entries on each Monday morning for the previous week, and will be notified by email or mail at the email address or address provided by the winner. The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received. Winners will be announced formally with status updates of the Winter Special list at two-week intervals.
Please realize that the Winter Special product list has been sent to more than 150,000 Atlas fans and 1,300 Atlas hobby stores nationwide. In other words, available product is changing daily and we are presently unable to automatically keep up with changes as they occur. Updated lists will be printed on a bi-weekly basis, distributed at WGH shows, and online updates will occur more frequently.
Good luck in finding your something special during the Atlas Winter Special!
