Model Railroading > Website help - MDC / Roundhouse Production List???

I am looking to see if anyone knows of a website that shows the laundry list of cars MDC / Roundhouse has produced, pre-Athearn buyout. I am aware of one for Tyco, and am looking to see if there is one of similar information for MDC / Roundhouse.

Regards,
Russ

HO Seeker used to be the site I would visit which would show Athearn, Walthers, MDC etc. past models although it was pretty good, it was not exhaustive.

It looks like it has been updated since last time I looked.

Edit: I used to be able to find, for example, Walthers freight cars by a nice list of car types and now it only seems to show Walthers stuff from before dinosaurs roamed the earth. I'm wondering if it's the same useful site I used to visit? :S

Perhaps the secrete is at archive.org

Archive stores web pages for retrieval in the future.  One time I looked up a friend's website seven years previous.  I sent screen captures of photos I had found there.  He was simply amazed because he had pulled down those photos five years before I sent them.

It only took me a few minutes to find this

That doesn't look anything like the site I used to go to - I may have the site book marked at home. It had white pages with nice lists of types of rolling stock you could click on and see examples of items produce by Athearn, MDC, Walthers etc. I'll see if I can find it later, and post, assuming it still exists. Perhaps it went by a different title/name.

My memory was recently jarred. Here is the site I was thinking off.

http://tycotrain.tripod.com/

I go there for Walthers and Athearn but strangely MDC/Roundhouse is not included.

Edit: that site was the good one but when I click on a link, say Walthers, it says site is being moved. Maybe that new one is the replacement - if so, I do not like the new site at tall. Bummer.

That's the website I was looking for. Thanks.
