An RMT Beep and caboose were featured in our Readers' Choice Railroad series in 2011.

From a press release:

READY MADE TRAINS, LLC President Walter M. Matuch announces retirement in 2016.

"After a lifetime career on actual railroads (Jersey Central, Rahway Valley, Erie-Lackawanna, Conrail, US Navy) and in model railroading that spanned almost 50 years, I’m coming to the ‘end of the line’ says Walter M. Matuch, president of Ready Made Trains LLC. On February 24^th, I will be 67 years young and will retire to fully enjoy my family and finally complete my model railroad! RMT, the company, will remain online, perhaps until the end of April 2016, as the remaining in-stock RMT inventory is sold on the RMT website. You can order online right now 24/7 and all current orders and new orders placed online will be processed and shipped by warehouse operating staff during that time, then RMT will be done and the doors closed."
