Important Notice on Tariffs

As you know, we currently have a 104% tariffs on Wheels of Time production made in China and with possible threat to 125%. The tariffs on products made in China are unsustainable for a small business like Wheels of Time and in broader sense will really damage the model railroad industry.

Our current project with RailSmith (N scale baggage-express cars) which will be wrapping up in May sometime will have a line item called "tariffs" that will be collected before we ship those products. At the moment, we don't know how much that will be and how much Wheels of Time can actually absorb.

Additional all Wheels of Time production from China will be curtained until tariff situation becomes economically feasible again.

However, our 3D printed and resin cast products will remain in production since they are made in here locally.

Sincerely,

Matthew Young
