You know it's interesting. A thought just occured to me. You have MTH coming in to LS with 1:32 scale stuff. Engines are really good, rolling stock, so so. Now this mob which bought Athearn a while ago and probably has the best HO stuff on the market, particularily the Proto 1000 and 2000 stuff has now purchased a company that essentially has rolling stock in LS that is 1:32 scale. All of it actually except the caboose and the Hustler. And now with Gary Lantz saying that they will upgrade the line. Makes you wonder.

I hope they add to the line, I would love to see the HO scale EDM model 40 switcher get produced in LS. I doubt they would though, too close in appearence to HLW's Mack.

   Have fun with your trains
