As of now an unnamed company may be buying all the tooling from Grandt Line. This is great news. No one made as many O gauge parts as they do. Will tell all when the deal is signed. They can't take any more orders as of now. Don

Grandt Line was an iconic company within the O scale hobby. I think it should be financially viable but I have so much of their parts in stock that I hardly need anything else!

(Hmmmm....not hearing any bells ringing.)
Sounds promising.
Now, if we can just get Rail Graphics decals "un-retired".... Really, my "next order" was almost designed and finalized.
The hobby - the satisfying model RR'ing, not the big-buck Magnum Stuff - is eroding away. Lots of reasons.
What about Scale City Designs?????.........................Paul

Menards? They sell windows and doors and stuff! LOL
No. It's Jake. From State Farm.
He's giving out a free pair of khakis with every purchase over $50.
It was to valuable to have the molds just turned into Toyotas. The molds are small and the injection machine needed to run them does not require a overhead crane to run. It'a a no brainer even in this age of declining builders....still enough of us to make the small runs needed. Good news!
This information is current;y posted on the Grandt Line web site.
Good news!
