Stay off the tracks!
Nothing new announced, but it's interesting to see the paint and assembly stuff - apparently in California, not Asia:
Greetings,
One of our most important tasks right now is planning for 2005 kit production. Kits are still being manufactured at our Carson, California facility and next year we plan to have a full slate of models in production.
We will be posting next years schedule on the Athearn News as soon as it is finalized. Currently we have plans in place through August of next year of our famous Blue Box rolling stock kits. As soon as we finalize further plans, we will issue a schedule for September through December.
We would like to close this issue of the Athearn News with some snap shots that we recently took in our Carson Facility.

As you can see, production is in full swing in California. There is a lot of Athearn product currently in stock with new items being made or received almost every day.
