Dear HO Scale Customers;
It has come to our attention the new Aurora Models HO SD 60F locomotives have a drive train design flaw which the manufacturer has acknowledged. We understand the amount of money, time and countless hours of work and worry invested in a project, yet that does not compensate for the mechanical issue of this engine.
Many of you have placed orders for these locomotives and have been anxiously awaiting their arrival. However, we believe in ethical business practices and cannot sell a product to our customers that we know is faulty.
After discussions with several other reputable Canadian model train retailers, we have decided to postpone acceptance of these units to give the manufacturer an opportunity to remedy the problem.
We support Aurora Models and look forward to receiving the HO SD 60F locomotives from them once the running problem has been corrected. Then, and only then, will we ship the engines out to you.
We apologize for this disappointing turn of events and thank you for your patience and understanding.
PWRS Management
