    At least it wasn't Horizon buying Stewart. That's the last thing I need - another line I can't buy wholesale.

    THIS acquisition I can agree with! That's one less company for Horizon to get.

    Besides, I like those Bowser 100-ton 3-bay hoppers (esp. the Frisco ones, 12 of which are on my layout :D )

    Wonder what kind of diesel models the company will release now? They've covered the Baldwin switcher line pretty well, and are working on Alcos (now for a C420 and C636).

    Yes. Agree with this!

    Hasn't Bowser quietly picked up a few other lines over the years? Slowly expanding. Top quality stuff.

    :D
