I looked at his website. Nothing appears to have changed. Under "General News", tomorrow is one year since last entry.
Still soldering cars.
No newer dates I can find. He still does not have any copyright year at bottom of the pages.

Good luck!
Dave....gone by invitation

Found a couple a Scalecraft locos, P13 and Mountain in basket form and a Walthers polydrive Mike. Then Carey got ahold of me and filled up my van. Old stuff though nothing the modern proto48 crowd would like. But I am happy. Got some IMP early brass PA’s and a sweet Great Western 4-4-0 as well as a scratch free lance 4-4-2 camel back. Then I had the pleasure to be allowed to run Carey’s layout for the guests along with Matthew and George. Whe had a great time, could have stayed there talking trains all night.
