QUOTE: Originally posted by simon1966 Don't you think that two other things have somewhat de-valued the catalog? 1. The trend towards short production run limited availability items, especially locomotives, means that what is in the catalog is not available. 2. The growth of Horizon as a major distribution competitor means that the catalog no longer contains much of what is available.
QUOTE: Originally posted by FundyNorthern It's too bad the Walthers web site Search function wasn't as intuitive as Google or other search engines. If you know what you're looking for, it's bad enough. But you have to look up the manufacturer's number first, and enter it in the search page, then the description. And many times that doesn't work. But that would cost them money to have such a capability, so it probably won't happen. Bob Boudreau

Bob Boudreau FYI, you don't need the number of the maker, typing in their name in the manufacturer box in advanced search works just fine. Fred
