The Timonium show was a smashing success. Thanks to all who stopped by to see us. This was the last show at which we will be selling to the public. All future shows will be for exhibition only, in consideration of our many dealers. Our list of dealers has grown by leaps and bounds to now include 11 dealers across the country! Please take a look at our "Dealer Listings" page for details.

January 29, 2003

Check out the "Product Reviews" pages just added to read reviews of our products. Also more pictures have been added to the "Customer Photos" page of the U.S. Botanical Garden Christmas display.

March 5, 2003

As a result of the overwhelming initial demand and in anticipation of the SPRING BUILD OUT (as if this winter will EVER be done with us) we have placed another order with the factory in order to continue to have an adequate stock on hand. Also, we continue to add more dealers on a regular basis. Please check with them first when ordering.

March 21, 2003

Added a new button at the bottom of the home page to take you into our future. The content of the "Future is near" page is intentionally vague as we will not be revealing the new products until the East Coast Large Scale Show. If you are unable to attend you'll just have to hold on until we post pictures of the prototypes of our next products on or just after April 7th.

April 9, 2003

Still recovering from the show. It was nice to hear all the compliments and comments on our products. We had 19 dealers when we left for the show on Friday morning and came home Sunday with 24. Check our Dealer Listings page for one near you. The button at the bottom of the home page now takes you into our future with pictures. The latest new item is a 35" version of our popular Deck Girder Bridge. These should be available in mid July and MSRP is $149.95. There will also be a 36" Catwalk packaged for use with the 35" Bridge. These should be available at the same time, MSRP $TBA. And last but not least we showed a hand made sample of the first in our Steel Trestle Series. This series will include a 12" Deck Girder version and a 12" high base Trestle, with modular add-on legs and bracings for 2, 3, and at least 4 foot high towers. These are in development and will begin showing up late fall this year or early next year. No prices have been set on the Trestles yet.

PHOTO GALLERY 3 has been added. It's full of pictures of our own layout's construction. Hopefully there's some useful ideas you can use.
