LarryI DO have fun in the hobby, daily! I just can't get my head around the fact that some manufacturers build what may be some good engines, but put totally rediculous or fake paint scheme or road names on them. What's next? A great running 4-4-0 in CSX yn3 paint? Or how about a GG1 in SP bloody nose? I guess what I am getting at here is why can't they be decorated correctly to start with so that the guys who just want to run trains AND the more discering modelers can all enjoy the same product. Wouldn't they sell more that way?? Plus, as the model owners tastes change over time, (I've witnessed this several times)there wont be a delayed "buyers remorse" for buying an engine that may need to be modified or repainted to fit into a prototypical operating scheme.It cant take that much more effort to just do it right.
