WELCOME ABOARD! <br /> <br />I'm not an Athearn guy yet but yes I just spotted a identical complaint posted on www.trainorders.com a membership paid forum on Oct 15 and yes, no parts on hand. <br /> <br />Up until that time I thought Athearn had a pretty good record and I just bot the Challenger. <br /> <br />Do they have the locos in stock? In order to maintain their creditability I would think they should <br />exchange the units with proof of purchase. That's the honorable & professional thing to do. <br /> <br />In effect since they can't deliver, they have defaulted on their warranty which says" We warranty <br />against factory defects provided we don't find any signs of unusual wear or customer abuse". <br /> <br />www.horizonhobby.com bot these guys out. Wonder what their take on the issue is?
