[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Big_Boy_4005 Actually, listing Athearn in the Walthers was kind of an exercise in futility, partly because the line was so large, and partly because much of it wasn't immeadiately available anyway. It was always sold out or on back order. I remember for years on end, Irv never made certain cars, but they kept showing up in the catalog. [/quote]ITA that it bites not having Athearn or MDC in the new catalog.[:(!] It wasn't really that important to me as to what was currently being made...it was just nice to have a reference source of what Athearn & MDC does make. Even if it's not on the hobby shop shelves right now, if I could see that Athearn has made say, a GP 9 in Soo Line colors in the past, then maybe I could keep my eyes open for one on eBay, for example. Horizon's website is still a mess as far as trying to find anything, and if they're going to try to go head-to-head with Walthers, then they need to put out their own catalog. Especially since now Intermountain has jumped ship and gone from Walthers to Horizon.
