When I made one of my original replies on this forum it was concerning MTH and the k4 and its sync.smoking feature.I must confess I was not very current on major issues within the model train world.With the price of non brass engines heading towards the 500.00 a pop mark I was and still look for the absolute most I can get from my dollar.But as i began to read more and more posts that was about the time as the two before mentioned threads,I was kinda shocked at what i read about MTH and their buisness practice.How much futher would DCC be behind its current level if the Lenz corporation would of taken a simaliar stance.The fact that they handed it over to the train community through the nmra on a silver platter,has no dought influenced their success.Does anyone remember the old Cracker Jacks commercial about the joy of sharring.This hobby is about sharring as it is anything else.We share are advise comments and opinions everyday here in this and many other forums.I have yet to meet a model railroader who would not take a little time to share his hobby.Mth has with out a dought heard the collective roar,and i think their sales will reflect this.I personely will spend my money on products that are manf. by companies that are not just about greed,but improving the hobby for all to enjoy.Even if MTH offered the k4 or any other model in brass with all the features that one could want,at a price to good to pass up I would do just that.Pass it up.Will MTH survive in the ho market place,time will tell,to the people who buy their products like it was said earlier more power to you.To me they will be just one more product to pass over while I scan the shelves at the LHS looking for my next BLI.
