Back to made in the USA!
Being a kinda of oldtimer at 62, looking at my locomotives and cars I still see many US made things. As a mater of fact most are! Bowser, Penn-Line, Gilbert, Revell, Mantua, Varney, John English - (HObbyline), Lionel, Front Range, Pennsylvania Scale Models, Athearn, Hobbytown, Walters, Stewart, and Roundhouse. I'm sure I forgot a few and most really haven't gone. Most were made so well you can go to train shows and still find them. Others are still being manufactured even now. Some of these locomotives and cars have been used for 50 or 60 years. Yes thing have worn out and been replaced, but they keep on going. If you want to buy something made in the USA just look for it. You will find it. And with the prices of this made in China stuff so high, you may even save some money. P>S> If you look at my photo it is a Gilbert PRR 0-6-0 B6. I have seven of them all made in the late 50's and early 60's and they all run.
