Has anyone heard whether or not Menards will be making more York Hotels.  They had them as a staple for a long time and, just when I thought seriously of buying one, they are out of stock. (A hard lesson we all have probably had in this hobby).  Trying to determine whether I should move on to the other great hotels available out there or not.  Mark from Menards?

Hi Iron Horse,

In keeping with our limited run policy (to preserve the collectability and value), the York Hotel will never be repeated.

I see them for sale from time to time on eBay and elsewhere, but the asking price is usually 2 or more times what we sold them for. A lot of guys seem to be making a lot of money on our buildings right now.

We have several other products, such as the UFO Cow Abduction Scene, Red Barn, and Ranch House, that are running out as well. Again, theses will never be repeated, so if you wish to buy them (at our price), now is the time to do it.

Thank you and be well,
Mark the Menards Train Guy

Mark,

Yes, I totally understand. I bought the original American Power & Light and you did not repeat it.  You did, however, come up with a similar one, Northern Power & Light.  Perhaps (wink, wink) a similar York hotel could be a limited Drake hotel in Chicago.  In the meantime, I have purchased several Menards buildings that are only now getting pulled out of their boxes to be put on my new layout -- should have added that one more.  Thanks for your response.

Mike
