Used to have one of those in Atlas O scale, but it was disappointingly chunky.   This looks like the sort of thing that would be fun to weather, just to do something a little different (for me anyways  ;) ).

Not only are their models impressive, they provide some pretty good info too...These guys are real pros...I wish they would consider N scale...

Yes, but for whatever reason, MT decided they needed a peaked roof when they really required a flat roof?

I remember that before BLMA did HO stuff, Tangent and BLMA often coordinated research— when we did the X2011 NMRA convention car (SP gon), Craig mentioned that Tangent had the same car in HO.

True...
It is unfortunate... ...and im not sure what the logic was behind that decision.  :|

The Tangent model does look incredible however :)

Hmm... and I bet they
only cost eight or nine
hundred dollars...

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.
"It works! It works!"

So what's keeping Tangent out of N scale?
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

I couldn't help myself: despite trying to sell off and thin out my collection, I bought one of these (and one of their airslides).
