Interesting, someone buy them out I wonder?
Now this is Interesting! Hopefully, This will be Uplifting, Thrilling, and Long Lasting.
Its time for some Good News..,.I am Ready!,
They closed 9/11, already a day of infamy....let's hope for good news.
If they're taking new pre-orders, as the announcement says, it would seem that a transformation into another train dealer of some sort must be occurring.

Could possibly be a scenario, whereby a new entity is buying the "business name", location and website infrastructure -- but not its inventory. Sometimes these big outfits -- like Bob Thatcher's former AM Hobbies -- are just too big for one buyer to absorb. Just thinking out loud... should be interesting to see what happens going forward.

I hope for the best, I would move my store if I could. ncng
Maybe they are going to an "on-line only" format.......no store, per se. And new owner/operator?
Good news indeed! Erik how many people did Caboose employ both part-time and full-time was it near 100 people?
Great news!
Erik,
Please tell Kevin Ruble about this Forum and that he should post news of his re-opening with URL, street address and phone number. It should help his business get off to a good start.
Regards,
Ed
