Anybody know anything about Associated Hobby Manufactures?
I have acquired a SP cab forward made for or by them.
Thanks

Importers.
The SP cab forward would be a Rivarossi product. It has been
produced for several decades with gradual improvements to
wheels and mechanisims over the years.

AHM imported from a variety of manufacturers, including
Rivarossi (Italy) Mehano (Jugoslavia) Roco (Austria) and from
Asia.

AHM (Associated Hobby Manufacturers) declared bankruptcy around 1980.
Bernie Paul, a principal in AHM, reformed the firm as Regal Way. Regal
Way subsequently declared bankruptcy. The present firm is IHC
(International Hobby Corp.).

Thanks again Bill
I picked it up back in 1989 and stashed it away.
Bought used from an old guy that had detailed it and was
moving into a nursing home (no room for it anymore).
I started in the hobby back in the late 60's as a teen
and living by the SP tracks above the San Fernando valley
in the 50's. (Ya late steam, PFE and tank trains)
Still remember a PFE derail above Chatsworth climbing the
grade heading north just before the Stonie mountain tunnel.

Thinking of building a duel gauge layout in HO and N with long
trains now that I finally have the room. Now to just find the time.

Due to budget cuts, the light at the end of the tunnel has been outsourced
to a country with no ability to light it ... but, they are inexpensive so
we will be able to support the light for a very long time.

What is your point?  Are you disputing that she was Florida's AG at the
time of the vote counting fiasco?

Where did I say she counted any votes?  
In this thread, where did anyone say she counted any votes?

"Hypocracy"? Hypo (under) + cracy (rule) = "Rule by underlings"?

Unless, of course, this troll (who seldom, if ever, posts anything of value)
meant "hypocrisy."
