Ashlin Trains (helixes)
Author: JUTower

Looks like Ashlin Trains website disappeared, and I sent them a message via their Facebook page. I'll try an old-fashioned phone call here eventually - I was curious to know if anyone could confirm that they are still in business (or not)?

I am considering ordered two helix kits, but I won't really need them for another 6-9 months. But if they are on their way out, I'm willing to order now if necessary.

Thanks,
-Alex

Alex,

Last I heard. Rodney had moved, maybe twice. I bough a custom helix from Ashlin some time ago and was one of the best decisions I may for my layout. Keep on it I hope they are coming back.

I recently bought two double track helices from them and had no issues...he will answer eventually.

Please report back as I also would like to get a helix in the near future.

I called the toll free number, to find that it was disconnected. Not a good sign. If anyone knows this guy personally, see if he's interested in selling two more kits please?

Does anyone have additional info? Or recommendations for another helix kit manufacturer?
Thanks!
