Most interesting! I wonder if ultimately this will be a positive development for the BrickTracks brand. Product availability there seems to have been spotty over the last few years, so maybe BrickForge's ownership will help make availability more consistent.

The BrickForge folks are train heads so this is a good move.

Richard and Ashley are good friends of mine; I'm glad for this news to break. They have a lot of very strong ideas for both maintaining and growing the brand and product line.

Getting R120's back in stock was a piece of the deal, I believe.

Definitely a good move for BrickTracks and the community.

Does this spell a double R104 crossover?

Also, is Hoffmeyer okay?
