Seems to me it wasn't too many years ago that Athearn locos were the defacto choice of MOST hobbyists because of price and reliable operation. I still own and operate all of my "growlers" and still buy them although other builders are making inroads. It's not annoying at all to hear those Athearn units growl down the right-of-way BUT just ordered my first sound equipped loco............If I think a sound decoder can overcome the noise (compliment the noise?) I'll equip my growlers with them. I could get on another subject here but won't. Athearn has given the hobbyist a great product over the years for such a reasonable price. They will always have a warm spot in my memories.
