Horizon, removing Walthers as a distributor for Athearn and MDC, was akin to cutting off their nose, to spite their face! Hopefully, there will be a recovery for Horizon. However, removing the largest distributor of these products from the loop "in one fel swoop" was a dumb business idea! A slow switch to Horizon as the distributor makes better business sense. I would guess this decision has hurt sales for both Athearn and MDC, it has to have! I see less of their products on the shelves and the shop owners I talk to, say they have had difficulty getting inventory from both producers.
