Great News about NWSL UPDATE
Posted by RR_Mel on Wednesday, December 4, 2019 8:58 PM

Great News
 
I placed an order with Northwest Short Line on Monday and received a shipping conformation this afternoon with a tracking number.  I didn’t know for sure that the new owner was up and running so I did it to it and I have 5 packages of universal joints on the way for my Mabuchi SF-266 motors.

They are still

working through the backlog from the closure deadline.  So new orders might be delayed as they fill the. BAck log. They have a lotnof large orders to get out the door yet.    I got notice monday that the stanton trucks i ordered before the original planned closure are now built and ready to ship.  It was nice to hear one of the employees saved the company from going under.

Not all of the website is working yet, but they can expect a good order from me after the first of the year.

Ill order parts,  when theyre caught on backorders. Give them a chance to breathe

These are the opinions of an under 35 , from the east end of, and modeling, the same section of the Wheeling and Lake Erie railway.  As well as a freelanced road (Austinville and Dynamite City railroad).

I received my universal joints this afternoon all is good!!  They’re back!
 
Not bad service at all, Monday order, with confirmation.  Tuesday order shipped USPS with tracking number, Saturday in my mailbox.
 
I’m set for installing the Mabuchi SF-266 motors.
 
Thank you NWSL!!!!

Not all of the website is working yet, —

It is nice to see that the new owner included the informative catalog pages from the old site, though. Valuable information there!

Thanks for your report, Mel Yes
