Outstanding news.

Yes, this is good news. After getting the wall to wall tour in the last few weeks I see there is a lot of machinery to move and rows and rows of product to box up and load into trucks or vans.

Excellent news!
 

Good to hear that an employee is buying it. Perhaps that means it is somone who knows the business. Perhaps it will be bought over time. (A good idea for tax reasons, cash flow to the former owner and perhaps makes the entity more salable.)

Good news. I had ordered something before the last deadline, haven't gotten it yet...but sounds like it's still on the way. Thank you for the update.

Very nice!  I'd grabbed a few gear sets at the "11th Hour", as insurance, but this is reassuring news all the same.

Makes me happier than a camel on Wednesday!!!!! I need gear sets.

Good news.  I will be able to get all my 4-axle diesels over to Stanton drive trucks,  Maybe they will do 6-axle trucks.

I just noticed that post on their FaceBook page, as I just returned from Japan. I went to their page expecting to read a "farewell note" in a post, from Dave but... more of a "changing of the guard" post from Dave = Fantastic news!

I've been asking them for years about doing six wheel (three axle) Stanton drives.  I was told that they are working on them.  I need four of them with asymetrical axle spacing for the Baldwin version of the Tri-mount truck for my HO scale N&W "Jawn Henry" turbine to replace the KMT "coffee grinder" drive.

I have two Atlas Gold Series F-M Trainmasters and an Athearn SD-70ace in need of 6-wheel Stanton drives.
