Dear HO Scale Customers;

Unfortunately, we have recently been informed by Athearn that they have decided to cancel several previously announced releases. If you have ordered any of these products through us you will be getting a cancellation notice via email over the next few days.

As per Athearn:

Good afternoon,

 

The Athearn team has identified projects within the current production cue that have received either the minimum amount or not enough pre-orders in which to justify production. To streamline our production and deliver the models that were the most popular with our customers, we have elected to cancel models that did not perform as expected within the pre-order window. We have listed the models as seen on the attached list.

 

We apologize if you were one of the customers who pre-ordered one or more of these models and any disappointment you may have.

Sincerely, 

 

The Athearn Team
