[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by jimrice4449 I worried (slightly) about people's perception that I was "only playing with trains" and came up with an answer. I have a large, terminal type RR but the only part of it that's even partially sceniced is the upper level passenger depot and yards that take up a total of 49 ft of wall w/ a right angle bend in the middle. I model the 1945-55 period and if I were ever to get any patronizing comments my answer would be along the lines of: "If I had made a 2 dimensional, static representation of America at the height of it's industrial development in oils or acrylics covering an area 4 ft high and 50 ft long would you have thought it childish? Well then, if you think a three dimensional, kinescetic, multi media reprentation of the same thing is childish, is the problem the scene being viewed or your perception of it?" Unfortunately I've never had occasion to use it, but should the occasion arise, I'm ready! [/quote] Jim, [:D] Great story.. keep it handy you never know it might come be very usefull someday. Keep 'em flying. [tup]
