Some day an insider may spill the gory details. Until then we will all wonder.

Here is a bit more info I found on another forum:
- when the owner of MBK, Ted Klein, died in 2020, his long time girlfriend took over as owner, and when she died her daughters became the owners. They didn't want it so they wanted to sell it and be out of the business.
- per this guy, Intermountain was interested in buying MBK but was outbid by Hattons.

Who is Hutton's ? It was Hatton's that bought out MBK and Hatton's is permanently closed no business what so ever
Now Rails of Sheffield has bought the Hatton's name none of the business part So just curious just who are you dealing with

Yes, I got a letter from Factory Direct Hobbies about a month ago that said they had purchased them. And the new site remembers my password and old orders.

I forgot about the reward points. I'll need to log into my account to see how many there are.
