This letter is written in response to the requirement of Rule 12b-25(c) under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and in satisfaction of item (c) of Part II
of Form 12b-25.

We are the independent auditors of the Plans. Atchison Casting Corporation and
the Plans have stated in Part III of their filing on Form 12b-25 that each of
the Plans is unable to timely file, without unreasonable effort or expense, a
Form 11-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000 because we have not been
provided certain information necessary to complete our audit.

We hereby advise you that we have read the statements made by the Plans in Part
III of their filing on Form 12b-25 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000, and
agree with the statements made therein as they relate to accounting and auditing
matters.

Very truly yours,
