Red and yellow trolley cars thread the bustling streets of Los Angeles, contrasting with trios of GP9s roaming the wilds of Carrizo Gorge. From busy double-track mountain main lines to thrice-weekly locals in the Mojave Desert, there's something for every reader in the pages of Southland. |

News | Walthers has sold their N-Scale motive power and rolling stock lines to Atlas. The products will be integrated into the various Atlas N-Scale product lines: Atlas Master, Atlas Classic, and Trainman.
Grandt Line has a new owner. Grandt Line Products, The San Juan Car Co., San Juan Decals, American Limited Models and The Leadville Shops, are being merged into a new company called The San Juan Model Co.. At the request of the Grandt family, the "Grandt Line" name will be retired. It is expected that the merger will be completed by this fall and a new combined catalogue will be available.
Shinohara shut down in May. This will leave a BIG hole in HO scale track supplies. Walthers is negotiating to buy the code 83 track templates so it can continue production of their code 83 track line. |

A rerun from Roundhouse: CPR Shorty passenger cars. These cars were first made for H&D many years ago in the "H&Ds Own" line.
Now that H&D is gone Roundhouse is continuing to product them with improvements to painting and detailing.
These Shorty Cars based on Sierra Railroad cars are in no way a CPR protoype but they are cute and look good behind a small steam locomotive. They make a nice 'Pike' sized train.
