[quote user="Tracklayer"][quote user="Paul3"] <p>Yep, it bugs the heck out of me. I have over 250 cars on my layout, and none of them have the same reporting mark and number.</p><p>When I see it, like the one time I saw a 50 car NYC Pacemaker freight with all the same car number, it just destroys any sense of realism anyone is trying to create. Sure, the public doesn't care, but then the public wouldn't care if you ran a 200ton derrick at 120mph with the boom facing forward, either. And they love wrecks almost as much as they love speed.</p><p>Paul A. Cutler III<br />************<br />Weather Or No Go New Haven<br />************</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>I'm glad you brought this up. I had someone recently make the comment that the speed I run my trains at is boring, and asked me if they went any faster than that. I replied - These are trains, you're wanting slot cars...</p><p>Tracklayer</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Once I get the Duplex out with the passenger cars, it will run. They wont have any chance to look-see too closely.</p>
