I guess its a vicious cycle ..... the more we buy over the 'net, the harder it will be for most LHS to turn a profit, causing them to cut back on inventory, etc .....causing us to buy even more off of the 'net , ........etc <br /> <br />A really nice shop in NJ, The Model Railroad Shop in Piscataway .... its an old place with really nice people, nothing but trains including brass in stock. It is jam-packed with every little detail, scenery, scratch building supply you could ask for. The man goes to great trouble stocking all these $1.26 pieces of nothing to help modelers. <br /> <br />On the wall he pasted a page out of an old Model Railroader magazine. It was a real old editorial, from before the internet days (plain old mail order). It stated how we were going to ruin our LHS by going to them for all the little stuff, but when we need an engine, we pick up the phone and order it from SuperMegaTrainWorldDepotMart. <br /> <br />Did it happen? <br /> <br />Jim <br />
