Reply to "MTH McKeen Car "Delivered" ? Don't think so..."

Last Fall, I approached Mike Wolf at the TCA pre-York opening presentations and inquired,once again about the McKeen being produced but unfortunately his response was quite negative. Mike indicated that If I was willing to buy a couple of thousand, he might consider producing the McKeen. I did previously order the McKeen when it was first announced. For some time, there has been an unsubstantiated rumor in circulation to the effect that the original tooling was incorrect and that it would have entailed a considerable cost to re-tool and that, plus low pre-orders doomed the production. I still live in hopes that someone will produce an affordable McKeen motor car and trailer either in scale or tinplate O or standard gauge. Unfortunately I don't have another 50 years to wait!
