Too bad for the folks involved with the company, but to me, not an "issue" at all. (no pun intended) It's been at least 7-8 years since i've...
That really looks nice:thumbs_up: I just ordered one unit from Feather River late yesterday. MY LHS has a "pair" on order, but hasn't received...
My wife is still "looking" for her favorite bread knife:zip: I keep telling her, "man, that's weird" about its' disappearance:angel:
Yep, as stated above, I've used bread knives and steak knives. Better than the hot wire cutters IMO.............and no "smell":omg:
Pretty much the same for me. The early Atlas/Kato's are too orange. The latest GP30 looks fine. The last release of the GP40's in "KC Orange"...
Wish you and your future well. As I've learned over the decades, "things" happen in a career, and the best thing to do is "take" the positives,...
One thing I do with the kaplon tape is throw it away first. I always use the fiberglass reinforced packaging tape. It's ultra sticky, stays put...
Well, to keep the "rumor mill" rolling, I heard someone say that Kato would release a new run of F40's in Ski Train paint:thumbs_up:
There's a lot of folks to, that buy, quickly check the unit for "damage", and pack it away until there's time to use it. I'm guilty of that. Do...
I could be interested in 2 to 4 units this spring. The price seems right, and with a decal sheet with each car, I could use the extra numbers on...
Also well put Rick. I think that this "error" by IM has come to this level of discussion for several reasons: Everyone has an opinion on what is...
Marcelene is a great spot. They still have the concrete coaling towers standing:omg: It's the double track section of the ATSF, and can be very...
Well put Cal. I quit "going to the game" for this reason. The fumbles, fumbles, fumbles...............at "playoff/superbowl" ticket pricing.
First thing, get a Missouri road map. There's not a "straight" road here in the "state of missery". Take Hiway 7 north out of Blue Springs. From...
US RR's don't like "new" or "different" technology. The KM locos didn't "cut it" as stated above, and at one time Alco had a hydraulic driven fan...
All the "BS" I put up with on my former IM tunnels:thumbs_down: I would gladly take a "ones size fits all" tunnel motor from Kato. At least the...
Well, all I can say is that if MODOT could use their funding correctly, Missouri motorists would have safer roads. They need to concentrate on...
Just an intersting "observation" that I've made on Atlas/Kato's. "Pop the top" off a 10 year old Kato, and then do the same on a couple year...
I "had" several of the older Atlas/Kato's, and I have to say, the new Atlas Classic units run WAY better, are DCC ready, and the paint is far...
Richard, "soapboxing" is good. In fact, we paid money to "soapbox":thumbs_up: Nothing wrong with that!
