Do you guys think an Athearn blue box section to this forum would work? They are as classic as Tyco, AHM, etc. I think. The subject seems to come up often enough it may be worth a try.

A Bachmann section would be cool.

Hey Todd,
Both sound good to me? What about it? Could we include an Athearn section and a Bachmann section???
Thanks,
Tony

Like Tyco, Athearn blue box is a breed apart from AHM, Bachman, etc. I'd hesitate to mingle them.

Agreed. Athea "rn has been in business for so long for themselves, and has done enough for others besides (Lionel, Atlas, AHM, Cox, etc) that they'd need thier own site.
Besides, we'd might need to change this forum's name from "Tyco Forum" to "HO forum" if we became all-encompassing. Which isn't objectionable, but the question of intended focus is valid.

NYC,
Thanks for the new additions!!! I have a few rebuilds posted in the AHM section. Should I repost those to the custom/kitbashing section? I do have some others to add as well. Thanks again!
