Brakie: I agree with you. My guess is that if you looked at Athearn's sales volume today and compared it with ten years ago, there is most likely a substantial amount of growth. If you add up the total dollars being spent in the hobby today and compared it to ten years ago, I'll bet a lot more is being spent. The long term prospects of the industry may not be that bright. The baby boomers are in their peak earning years, while the generation X and younger people are not as interested in the hobby.
