[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by PaulMilewski</i> <br /><br />This topic seems to have brought out a bunch of irate individuals! Whatever I say I know that some of you will pat me on the back and the rest will roast me over an open fire, preferably 'til I'm nothing but dust !! As I see it ( and I've got to tell you that I'm no lawyer) the Union Pacific has every right to do what they are doing. It doesn't even make a difference whether they are right or wrong. It doesn't make a difference whether they are trying to gouge the public or not. It doesn't make a difference if they are trying to make a statement or not. It doesn't even make a difference about the issue of control. But here in the U.S. of A. they do have the right to do what they are doing. I agree whole-heartedly with those of you who think this is a pile of ka-ka!! The more important thought is this-----------------I haven't seen anywhere that anyone is holding a gun at any person's head making them buy anything with a UP symbol on it!!!!! The way I see it, if someone doesn't want to pay the price, then-------------. Some modelers can afford the price increase while others won't be able to. And that will be a pitty. We modelers will take just so much abuse before we'll stop buying products with UP's logo on it. And then that certain railroad will just drop off the face of the earth. Now, wouldn't that be a delight. <br />[/quote] Amen![^]
