QUOTE: Originally posted by Glen1 The real question is - Why would any manufacturer go back to the days of having a separate railing and stanchions? For years now, new locomotives have had one-piece plastic molds with evertying in a single part. Even the Kato units, with their separate pieces for the ends were a big improvement. I saw my first Tower 55 engine a while ago and sure enough, a number of the stanchions were misaligned on the railing. I thought we got rid of this nonsense years ago.
