Cripplebush isn't the largest employer in the county.  Model railroading is a small hobby and the people who need rocks this week is small and there are multiple choices so they don't have a lock on the market.

It's probably one guy and maybe his wife, so when they go on vacation, there isn't anyone to answer the phone.

Hi Mike,

Good thought there. I had not considered that.

I'll give them more time.

Thanks again.

I don't know about recent contact. Saw a new product announcement or something in MR recently, so pretty sure they're still around.

However, many Americans have been busy preparing taxes, which were due on April 17. Then the IRS computer had a meltdown and there was a one day extension. This can be stressful if you're just any old taxpayer, but owners of small businesses can find themselves overwhelmned sometimes -- and the feds always come first until those tax forms are out the door and on their way.

Hi Fellas,

Has anyone had any contact with the folks at Cripplebush lately ?

I've tried for the last couple of days to phone them and all I get is a recording.

I would like to ask them a few questions before ordering and I want to make sure they are still around so that I can do that.

Any information would be appreciated.
