Klan,
Your reply first made me smile as I read it....and then the end.
Oh...get ready to open your pocketbook.?
Made me burst with laughter, nearly scared my cats.

I am already a Quasi Marklin Follower, having spent 7 years in School in an attempt to learn German.
Tell me, do these Z Clubs in France and Italy have any women members?
Okay, I'll?do it.
And ?
I run an ESU ECoS...AFTER I had tried everything else: MRC, NCE, Digitrax and even an ESU/Bachmann Dyn-a-missed.
>>?Oh...get ready to open your pocketbook.?
Oh Please Don't Tempt Me!?
For some weird Covid Reason, the prices of N?Scale have gone to as high as 5 times my original cost.
Should I sell my plethora of Brass N Scale too ? and Go Z Scale?
>>> To do what you see on Z scale layouts and to add so much realism is nothing but spectacular. ?<<<
So Please....Tell me it ain't so...That the Z Scale SP Cabforwards can actually run.
Cause?despite what you may read in the funny papers, the only N?Gauge Cabforwards which does actually operate is the Nakamura one from 1984.
The rest are just for derailing, glitching and cursing at.
Don't expect them to run.
I got an IM Model for $75, the previous owner bought one to impress his Father IN Law.
He takes it fresh out of the box...and it doesn't go a foot when it stops and glitches.
Then falls over.
His Father in Law, said Putz and then left the Tran Room.
He nearly threw the model at me.
Here's $75...Want to impress your Father N Law....Pay for Dinner!
Then two more were basically thrown at me (Cheap), Yet?
I don't seem to learn no better neither.
But I read the brochure....!
Today, you can read nearly anything you want abut anything....Doesn't make it true however.
Duh? You'd think we could learn.
Reading Comprehension, seems to be a thing of the past.
The Loco-Yokos at the now closed Train Store were often after me to sell all my N Scale and go O Scale or even HO.
You are getting older and as your eyes go and hands, you should consider a larger scale.
Maybe it's time you begin to think about O Scale ?
So I threw myself out of the Train Store.
Tempted me though, as I have begun a Run for both HO and O around the perimeter of my Train Room up on a sort of 8 inch wide shelf.
(I am too cheap and too stupid not to pass up great deals in HO and O Gauge too.)
But I may dabble in Z Scale, just to be able to say....
Those who do Z Scale are better modelers than I.
>>>To do what you see on Z scale layouts and to add so much realism is nothing but spectacular. <<<
Where I might be a very good N Gauge modeler, I risk failing in Z Scale.
I ain't that brave; but I am cheap.
Before the Grace of God !
Please Great Spirit...
Do NOT allow a Z Scale Cabforwards to pass before me, on the?cheap; as you have so done with Nakamura?Cabforwards, so many times: for as?low as $300.
I's know nothing about birthing no Z Scale, and I don't want to be slapped. Well, except maybe by a French Woman.
Ever been slapped by a French Woman? It's like a whole other Cultural Phenomenon.
Kind of refreshing actually.

I am considering Joining Z Scale Clubs, just so I can steal their ideas and watch their skills.
Gives a different meaning to...
I could never join a club which would have me as a member. - Groucho Marx.
Sometimes I am known as Groucho Mark
