I guess for one, I should have made the title of this topic, Old Dead Iron Horse.
But that is hind sight..

I never mind the hijacking of threads or subjects as something just might come out of it that's good.

Really strange that B-mann made all three loggers in Goofy Gauge in relative short time span. And On30 ?

Well I can wait as there is no other choice in this matter.
NO whimpers or whining. :'(

3. Being obnoxious does not help get your suggestion to the front of the line.  Polite persistence does.

Oh really ?

I guess you would sign up here. Just pester the mess out of them til' they make the engine. You got my vote on it. It would be better than seeing a k-27 made. ;D
Rock ON!

No !  Getting people pixxed off is a BAD route to go..

On30 / Re: Bachmann On30 track
September 04, 2008, 12:11:56 AM
Well I use Model Power HO flex track (cheap) and PECO switches ( not cheap) and unless you are a rivet counter, it really doesn't make a difference. Bury any track in ballast and it kind of disappears.

Nothing we have is like the real stuff  especially the plastic spikes. Nickel Silver rails or even old time brass, not even close to the real stuff...

So I figure why waste money on track?  A few others that I have chatted with use regular HO track too.

Tomcat has some good choices and they would be on my wish list too.

Of course the beat dead horse is still out there somewhere ???

Nice looking Stub switch.

I have been thinking for a long time about making at least one for my layout. It seems like my plate is so full now, when will I ever get time to do it ?

It's not my way to bug Bachmann or any other manufacture either. They know about engines or freight that have our interest. Even if I ever did do that, I would use some tact !

I'll leave the buggin' to someone else.

I would have been real happy to attend but we have a prior comment and wouldn't you know? we live here in Portland !

Oh well ! We will be riding on the newly started train ride on the island of Kauai Hawaii.

Now if they were going to hand out free engines, put me down for one but other than that, I really don't have a need for one...

Actually there is only one engine I would like to have but that subject has been beat so much that I won't mention it.

Nasty ?  Rather sounds dirty !

Since you have a right to choose what words you think is appropriate, I leave it at that.
