That's a bit rude   |
Well, if you can't get the message it's been sold then there is no hope!

Seeing as LGB went bust a month or so ago, prices went through the roof! Apparently Marklin have bought them, and the engines and stock are going to br produced in China. As long as they don't paint them with lead paint I think we will be fine

Maybe you should have kept them a bit longer Si, might have been a good investment.

Maybe I should have, but they were quite literally getting in the way so it all had to go. Quite glad to see the back of it really.

Its only the European side of LGB thats in trouble not the American.
They didn't go bust but went into voluntary receivership (which I guess is pretty close to bust).
I haven't heard of any deals of them being bought out but I haven't checked their website in some time.

MM LGB makes (made) the 45mm brass track I run my Mamod and Roundhouse loco on.
Personally not to big on their rolling stock but thats just because I prefer metal or wood to plastic but as far as I know the quality of their stuff is good just not my thing.
But the track they make is quality stuff.

LGB actually stands for Lehmann Gross Bahn The phrase 'stick to what you know best' entered my mind at that post by James
