This is a bit different, this is not one manufacture buying the competition, This is a "distributor" who is buying successful manufactures of a variety of hobby products. If a distributor controls the, distribution of a popular product. They can manipulate the prices of such. The popular Athearn line is everywhere, and sometimes deeply discounted. It was the way many folks got into this hobby, at a reasonable cost, and with a very good product. With the distribution of this product now changing, my only worry is how it will effect just that, the availability of this good, and reasonably cost product. And I am particularly referring to what is know as their "Blue Box Line" That is the American made car and engine kits.
