Let's do something productive and realistic regarding this boycott.

Everybody -- sit down, relax, take a deep breath, get a glass of milk, and take whatever medication you are supposed to, and then reread AntonioFP45s initial posting on this thread. You obviously still don't get it. <br /> <br />You're all taking this way too seriously, and getting all worked up like a bunch of old blue-haired spinsters at a Bingo parlor. The next thing someone will advocate is forming a picket line protesting at UP corporate headquarters. And why should we boycott Athearn, or did I miss something? Surely Horizon will have discussions with UP, if they haven't already. I don't expect that they plan to shelve their new Challenger just yet. I don't expect Lionel will cease making their new Veranda, unless they stole that one from someone (as they did from MTH) <br /> <br />If you rabble-rowsers want to vent about something take on the Lionel / MTH thing, for you have a legitimite gripe w/ Lionel and their Korean compadres for their crooked behavior. There is an issue worthy of a boycott, and I bet that more than one of you hope and pray that they'll then start offering deep discounts on their new Veranda as a PR stunt ! Then we'll hear just how unfair it was for the initial purchasers having paid 'sticker' for theirs. . .And, so on, and so on, like the Energizer bunny. <br /> <br />Last month it was the "Great threat to model railroading that Horizon might discontinue the 'blue boxes' debacle". This month it's UP this and that. Predict that Lionel will be in the barrel next month. <br /> <br />It's time to reread Antonio's post once again.
