Aline/Proto Power West and Arrow Hobby has been in business for 45 years, thanks to all of our great customers!
It was exciting to be on the cutting edge of so many new products, Intermodal Cars, Storage & Transportation Systems, Detail and Repowering Parts, plus a full line of Trailers, Containers, Decals and having a broad base with Dealers and Distributors.  We are now at a time of our lives when we are trying to slow down, but keep many or our products available through our Arrow Hobby Website, ppw-aline.com

We will no longer be selling our products through distributors or dealers, only directly through our website.

We also see the changing trends, over the years, more people are buying trains, not modifying or building them.
Thanks to the RPM movement (Railroad Prototype Modelers) that many years ago, I helped found and name RPM, has helped keep building models alive today.  If you have not attended a RPM Meet, I highly recommend you do!

We will be in the Model Railroad Business for who knows how long! Looking back and looking forward I can say the hobby is better than ever and has a strong future, we plan to be part of it!

Thanks again for all of your support over the years!
