Jeremy, <br /> <br />I am shocked to hear someone could be that ignorant. I model a fictious company in HO and N Scale. I have even been called nuts for reworking an N Scale Spectrum Series 2-8-0 into a Pennsylvania Railroad H9 Consolidation (with use of a minitrix K4 Shell, some stripped twist-ties, and a dremel.) <br /> <br />like you, I know how that story goes. I have not attended <u>ANY</u> train shows since the train show that had been at the Pittsburgh's Convention Center. <br /> <br />It sickens me to no extent to know that someone would break somebody's masterpiece. If someone would take one of my reworked N Scale Minitrix B6 0-6-0's, H9's or even my reworked HO Scale Proto 200 series 2-8-8-2 off my layout and destroy it. the guy would not only get the **** beat out of his sorry ****, but I would also take him to court over the cost of the destroyed engine(s) and make sure a restraining order bans him from even coming 100 feet near my layout again. <br /> <br />On the other hand, the guy might also get the remains of my destroyed masterpieces shoved pretty far somewhere. <br /> <br />*The doc is definitely going to inquire how all those model trains got up there....* <br /> <br />Tom Pearce
