I really want to buy your products I think they have a great attraction.  I want nicely detailed locomotives that run smooth and are reliable without the electronics to break at of course a lower price point.  The only thing holding me back from spending money on your products is the lack of details.  I know it is hard to balance cost vs detail etc. but I just can not get past the stamped handrails.  This is just me and I am not knocking your product or anyone who owns your product.   I know however that others feel as I do.  If it is at all feasible and you can hold the line on pricing can you please up the detail a little namely getting rid of the stamped handrails.  I just want to have fun running an engine where I don't have to worry about the electronics breaking.  I'll even go without the cruise control feature for a no hassle engine at a lower price point.  Thank you for listening.

HO / Re: Layout pics

This just goes to show that where there is a will, there is a way.  And believe it or not it is not the size but how-------Well large layouts are cool but if you are busy and don't want to devote the funds, smaller layouts can be  a blast.  Enjoy.

I think that Bachmann/Williams needs to tap the market in different ways than the competition.  I think Bachmann knows that Williams has a niche of lower cost trouble free offerings.  Why not stick with that philosophy and work towards enhancing their product line a liitle bit at a time. So the end result can be good detailed offerings with the flexibility to have the customer upgrade or to leave it simple, again leaving the decision up to the customer and keep the price down by not going overboard on technology.

I have purchased Bachmann items in HO as I feel this is the philosopy they use.  It attracted me as a customer!
