Dear Butch
I remember seeing ads for the company, and they seemed to offer some nice 
items, but I have the vague sense that the location was not
Portland when I noticed them.  Could be they have moved, as so many of us seem 
to need to do periodically.

I wonder if the UP coaches are not the original USHobbies/Kemtron etchings with 
cast ends and trucks that passed through several other
hands after Kemtron went out of business?  John Pilling, I believe, had them at 
one point but felt he couldn't do justice to producing and
marketing them.
