Hi All!
    I have finally decided to purchase Briggs Canadian "C" trucks for a couple of Atals C-630s I have. But the website for Briggs does not even have any N-Scale> Was I at the right site?

I believe it was recently reported that Jeff felt a little overwhelmed with the business and a full time job and decided to step away.
How long is unknown at this time, last I read.

Try Intercity Trains and Hobbies in Langley, British Columbia. They have taken over all of Central Hobbies stock, they had quite a bit of the Briggs n scale stuff

Yes I recall seeing some at Central Hobbies just before they closed, so they would now be at Intercity.  I can ask them at the Vancouver Expo Train Show tomorrow for you.

They have 3 kits left in stock @ 24.99 cad each, not likely they will be able to get more. They are a pretty new shop so there are some pains. Very busy today, most of the regular staff was off. They are going to have a look to check for your email.

Sorry I have had some difficulty with posting lately.  Yes there are three or four kits left in stock and those will be the last ones.  I would call and ask for Kathy to reserve and get shipped.
