Model Trains are only a small part of Canadian Hobbycraft, they distribute all sorts of hobby materials. They handled the Life-Like line in Canada. There's no way Walthers can take over the Canadian operations unless they buy out the company, and I doubt that they are interested in the whole operation. Hobbycraft have already announced a new name for their continuing trains - True Line Trains. They had a 5 axle C-Liner in development before Walthers acquired Life-Like, and are now bringing it out under this name, along with several other new products. So guessing that their "days are done" is just that - an idle statement with no facts. There was a thread recently pointing out to a store site listing the new models. I imagine we'll hear about what's happening in an upcoming ad in Canadian Railway Modeller magazine. Bob Boudreau
