Have fun.
We're not traveling these days. I'm surprised the PNW Live Steamers are still allowing operations.
Happy for you, too.

Np317,

PNLS isn’t currently open to the public. Just moving the loco from my garage to the clubs round house.

Jim Murray, who was the owner of MDM locomotive works, passed away a few years ago now. I don't think that most of his stuff is still available at this time, but if someone else has knowledge of where his products ended up, please let it be known.

rweller,

The owner(Jim) passed away a year after I purchased the kit.

Pontiaguy1,

From the few people I talk to, the family didn't want to sell the business after Jim passed.
Not sure what happen to all the castings and equipment.

Regarding the fate of MDM, Dave Newell has "taken up the mantle" so-to-speak. Check out his website.
