    Might be stuff that will finally be sold via online auction at less than full retail!

    When I first saw the title of this topic I immediately thought of "arguing about if it's called a switch or turnout".

    I thought he was speaking of a guy in our club. I thought to myself, how does he know Jimmy?

    Spent a small fortune on a bunch of 1960s crap at a yard sale. Came home put power to it and it went up in smoke. Or tired of the high cost of some junk that won't run or pull anything and the decoders went up in smoke too.

    Some little B needs some attention so he makes a video destroying something. It happens all the time. Sometimes with living things. Anything can be put on youtube which is allowing mindless things to be shown. What's it going to be next time? So many wacos, but there are good thing on there. You need some help to understand that?
    Mike, BTW, I like what you produce.

    My response LOL
    How about a guy named BarstowRick. I said not grinning. It's called a switch. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Are we talking about Jimmy who destroys stuff or calls the ARM a Switch?

    I think what you have here is an angry son who probably feels dad paid more attention to his model railroad, spent more money on it... then he did on him. Venting certain anger in a bit more then a polite way. I agree professional help is needed.

    Now if you don't mind I have some early B-mann stuff I want to take out and blow the boogiebies out of it. To heck with this foot stomping attention grabber stuff.
    :cool:

    This method sounds like a lot more fun! Also brings back some interesting childhood memories...

    Wonder if this is the offspring of a couple of folks from the old Timothy Leary era? I think about 90% of our current congress can lay claim to that and look at their behavior.

    To be fair, the N scale unit was that crappy SP geep that seems to be in mass production with few buyers. About time we got rid of one :teeth:

    A bit of exploration on youtube turned up a couple of girls stomping on passenger cars, too. I couldn't take it. Had to close it.:eek:hboy: When I think about my hobby budget, or lack thereof, the whole thing is pretty disturbing.:headspin:

    Oooh. Interesting point. I hadn't thought of it that way. My budget indicator these days is bouncing on empty tank....

    I would say this person shouldn't have a train set or even be allowed near a train clubs layout .
