Re: I missed that email

Re: WTB: SHS Caboose Trucks
I really don't appreciate your tone. If I were writing for the detail-obsessed I could have said AF-compatible, but I was under the impression that this was a group of well-disposed sociable

Re: WTB: SHS Caboose Trucks
< SHS trucks can be AF flanges, as I do still have scale wheelset replacements.> I had to reply to this because this notion is a real turnoff and it is dead wrong. SHS wheelsets are Hi-rail, not

Re: I missed that email
Rich, I take your point, but let's say someone wants to buy a new brass steam locomotive in HO these days? There are none to be found new. The new breed of plastic-and-diecast steam locomotives look

Re: I missed that email
Bill, that's pretty much my point.? New and available is in the past for the most part.? What was new and available 10, 20, 30 years ago is no longer relevant to today's person considering S. Rich
