Fantastic News For MW's 5" Gauge Locomotive Customers

Hi All,

We are extremely pleased to announce that we have been able to reach a gentlemans agreement for the sale of the 5" gauge locomotive business. The purchaser would like to remain anonymous until the deal has been finalised but he has made it clear to us that it is his intention to contact all ModelWorks 5" gauge locomotive customers and give them the option of him manufacturing the kits for their incomplete engines. We are unable to give any indication on timescale or pricing and will not commit on his behalf but we do see this as the very best solution for everyone concerned. The purchaser has many years experience in locomotives and manufacturing and would be more than capable of taking such a project on.

To Steve and I this brings an enormous amount of satisfaction as it potentially enables every MW's customers who started a project the opportunity to complete their models. It at very least gives some light at the end of the tunnel for everyone.

As soon as everything is finalised and the paperwork etc completed then as far as we are aware the buyers of both the 5" and 7.25" gauge locomotive business will be in touch.

Regards

Dean & Steve

I'll second that. It's just the right sort of news we loco builders have been waiting for.
