MC- <br /> <br />I didn't realize how much of the MOW side had collapsed as well. Pretty scary. I did see at least one ad for rail cars buiult in China to AAR specs so I guess it's just a matter of time. I know Meridian was a house of cards. Any idea who the buyer might be? <br /> <br />LC <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by mudchicken</i> <br /><br />LC: <br /> <br />It's not only the railcar componet manufacturers, the maintenance supply & equipment side is as heavilly threatened as well... <br /> <br />Jackson/Jordan/Tamper/Canron/Speno/Harsco/Fairmont is all the same company now...THe Chinese (Yangtse)have been selling spikes, bolts, OTM and other stuff in this country for 20 years now....IronKen hears that Meridian (Who bought out ABC Rail) is about to change hands or go under... <br />MC <br />[/quote] <br />
