It must have something to do with the moon - the question of the future of model railroading keeps coming and going, just like the tide. If you don´t mind me joining in the discussion, I´ll now get my crystal ball. "I see a tall, dark-haired stranger" - sorry, wrong forum. In the last couple of years, we have ploughed through a number of issues connected with the future of the hobby, starting with the slow, but presumably inevitable death of the hobby, the sound or no sound question, the DCC vs. DC discussion, the smoke or no smoke drama and, more recently, the questions of bluetooth devices for train control and the dead rail issue. I find these discussions to be of a rather academic nature, more of a "could be" than a "will be". It´s OK, that there are folks investing some thoughts into what direction the hobby will develop into - and I see Lance Mindheim´s ramblings in that sense - I don´t give a "dang" about it. My trains will continue to run on DC, picking up the juice from the rails, or even AC, as I have some old Marklin stuff I enjoy seeing run on a temporary set-up. I don´t care what will be in 20, 30 or 40 years from now, as I definitively won´t be around then.
