Fleischmann, Preiser, and Roco products

Published: January 26, 2009
Roman and Company, USA Inc., announced Jan. 23 that the company is adding Fleischmann trains and Preiser accessories to its product assortment. The company is expanding its operation by opening an additional location for larger warehousing needs.

Roman and Company also distributes Roco and MBZ products.

On Jan. 7, Silvergate Distributors announced it was a distributor of Roco and Fleischmann trains in North America.

"Roco and Fleischmann are strong, stable companies with a history of quality and service that stretches back to 1887," said Mark Rocha, Silvergate's vice-president of sales & marketing.

Roco and Fleischmann offer a broad selection of HO scale trains and track along with TT-scale, N-scale, and digital control products. Preiser produces model figures and accessories in multiple scales.

PETER MAYLOTT from AUSTRALIA (NSW) said:
The merger of Fleischmann & Roco may not be such a good thing, as Fleischmann will be reducing its presence in the HO field whilst Roco will be increasing its presence. In N scale, Fleischmann will become the dominant supplier from Europe. Now that Marklin has filed for bankruptcy, those inital plans by Fleischmann and Roco might be reviewed, and I would expect that Fleischmann's 3-Rail AC models to become very rare. This could herald a big shake up of the European scene and the next few months will be interesting to observe.
