Sorry to see any provider of model railroad goods shut it down. You could say that's what's wrong with model railroading. Dust on the floor.
Sorry to see John go but happy for him as well. John not only did frames, he also pad printed a lot of cars. His pad printing was excellent and I purchased many of his beer and candy cars. He also did 3 circus cars, one of which has a 3D image. Of course his track cleaners are top notch. So yes he did have a line. Funny, I have been trying to sell off my beer and candy cars as I need to downsize my stuff. Nobody bit. As always have fun, Carl
