FYI-MDC Roundhouse parts update
Posted by fwdguy on Monday, February 7, 2005 2:45 PM
Here is the responce I got from Athearn for your info.

We do not have parts available for MDC cars. We received 140 pallets from their wharehouse. We are
in the process of putting all the parts into our inventory. we should have parts available at the end of
March. We will send the parts as soon as they are available.

Happy Railroading,

Mark

Mark,

Thanks for the update on this. 140 pallets of parts. Can you imagine inventorying that?!?!?
If you ain't having fun, you're not doing it right and if you are having fun, don't let anyone tell you you're doing it wrong.

Well, I'd volunteer to help for a percentage of the parts on the pallets.[:D]

It's really kind of hard to support your local hobby shop when the nearest hobby shop that's worth the name is a 150 mile roundtrip.
