Soo sad.? ?Sorry Ed,? as much as I love all the stuff I have bought from you I'm now switching to Z guage.

I hate to have been right on that topic a few weeks ago. Despite that I won't shed a tear for aged toy like reefers with pizza cutter flanges I see the bigger loss in the modern locos and rolling stock no one else made in S but Lionel. No more SD70. No more ES44. No more U33. And if I buy one of those used or NOS, no more scale wheels to get rid of the hirail wheelsets.
With 59 I am a bit too "young" for a flirt with transition era themes. US railroads for me are mile-long trains pulled by a bunch of modern traction power. Gone. I hope that someone buys just the tooling for that AF stuff from ten years ago and reissues it before I'm also dead and gone. Being in S means thinking in long terms. But not THAT long...

Sad Greetings, Hans
