We present a grid of spherically symmetric model atmospheres for young pre-MSstars. This grid spans the parameter range $2000\K \leq \Teff \leq 6800\K$ and$2.0 \leq \logg \leq 3.5$ for $M=0.1\Msun$, appropriate for low mass stars andbrown dwarfs. A major improvement is the replacement of TiO and \water linelists with the newer line list calculated by the NASA-AMES group, for TiO(about 175 million lines of 5 isotopes) and for \water (about 350 million linesin 2 isotopes). We provide the model structures, spectra and broad-band colorsin standard filters in electronic form.Comment: ApJ, in press. Also available at ftp://calvin.physast.uga.edu/pub/preprint
