Dammit Bob, you're giving me more fodder for an era change on my non existing layout.
@Jbub HAhaha! Welll....I know what you're going thru. I did the same for a couple of years before actually setting a "liberal" ten-year era that encompassed most of my transition era interests and selling off EVERYTHING that didn't fit my 1947 thru 1956 UP Transition Era/Ogden to Green River location.
Since I did it, I think it's increased my enjoyment of the hobby, drastically limited what I purchase, produced enough capital thru selling off everything to purchase electronics & appropriate engines & cars that fit my era perfectly, and makes it easier to save for later car/engine releases that are also appropriate.
In my case, it was definitely a good thing...with my only regrets being the sale of all of my Overland GTEL Turbines and my superdetailed & custom painted Overland Centennials.
Since I'm a "runner", not a "collector", my only display models are an old Lindberg plastic HO scale Big Boy model and two HO scale UP cabooses. All of my N-scale cars & engines get run.
Anyway, good luck with your continuing leaning towards an era change!
Cheerio!
Bob Gilmore
