It doesn't surprise me. People have lost their god damned minds. It's what happens when people think they can say whatever crazy thing comes into their heads with no repercussions. I call it the 4chan effect. People let their lizard brains take over when they're yelling at a screen and it's being normalized.It's ugly and I'm afraid it's only going to get worse until we figure out how to use this technology responsibly.
I am bubbling with joy , I hope they do all the numbers , and the Verandas , and the U50b's . ScaleTrains rocks .
AS-616, someday? (I'm with you on all counts!)
Have you seen this?https://www.shapeways.com/product/QBHK49G88/n-scale-baldwin-as16?optionId=58655850
Yes, I knew about this. Aside from what John noted that it is not quite accurate for an AS-616, there's the burning issue of the trucks/bogies. How do you solve that, considering there are no available RTR or otherwise running chassis with the cast sideframes Baldwin used at the time?
Me, I'm happy to have a great hobby to come home to every weekend. Brian
And yet, I find myself tempted to join in on any lament thread where an mfg. doesn't personally satisfy my perceived needs, causing very big (not) grievances. I swear, once, when they didn't make a loco I wanted, I think I felt the world wobble on its axis for a bit.....Hey, maybe at age 65, I am growing up......at least a smidge.
