Heard today from a very reliable source that LBF declared bankruptcy. No idea what type of filing. Looks like Fred Becker has struck again. ---- Ken McCorry

Fred Becker: A model railroad manufacturer who has been involved in several companies which wound up in demise, including Front Range, E&C Shops, and McKean, and is now involved with LBF.

I do not know this for a fact but I was told once that LBF stood for Loads By Fred?

I did receive an email from LBF but it was unreadable for whatever reason. Hopefully if true they will be able to reorganize. -------------Ken McCorry

To me it seems premature to say this is factual pending better confirmation.
