I just thought I would pipe up on this subject again to try and keep it on track. The one thing that we all were at one time in this hobby was a beginner, a new comer. With all the past experience that some of us might have with other types of model RRing, once we stepped up to the plate and took a swing at large scale we learned that knuckle balls are the course of the day. With an occasional fastball, which we crush, if we are ready for it. The more at-bats, the better we will become. The better the hobby will become. I don't know if things will change with the scale issue, anyone who tosses the knuckle ball isn't going to give it up. It can be hit, you just have to be ready for it. All the scales are going to be available, forever, none are going to go away, which one are we going to swing at?! Knuckle balls are hard to hit, all the pitches we swing at look good for a split second. But swing we do and we must accept that, its going to be a strike or a hit.! The longer you have been around this end of the hobby the more you become familiar with the price of things. Getting a good deal on ebay or at the retail store is fulfilling and you can really feel good about holding out for the right pitch to send over the wall. Crushing the fastball is always fun. The cost and scale issues really seem to put people on edge. The longer we stay in the hobby and the longer we make it a main stream aspect of model railroading will make the newcomer alot more comfortable to join us. Hopefully the work we do today will make the newcomers problems of today a thing of the past. Got 2 feet of snow this weekend. Thats about 48 feet of scale snow if your in 1:24 or .........there it is again, darn knuckle ball!! Happy Holidays to All!! Peter
