Bob, Thanks for the opinion. I also enjoy tinkering, which would be the attraction for going with Bowser. I've built several diesel kits (MDC, Stewart RS-3, Athearn) but have never tried a steam engine. There's something about watching a train go down the track knowing that when I bought it it was only a box of parts. rrinker Your point makes sense also and I agree with it. In my case, however, the Bowser is more attractive. I enjoy building things and have become pretty handy with an airbrush. I haven't gone DCC yet (although it is getting SOOOOOO tempting!!) so that's not an issue with me. Of course if I wanted a RTR with DCC and sound, I agree BLI is the way to go vice the Bowser. Everyone that has posted This is the way the forum should work. Each person gives an opinion on why the do things a certain way or prefer certain products. No flaming, no bashing (except kitbashing!) etc. Everyone does things a different way. It's choosing which way to go that sometimes is difficult which is why I love reading everyone's posts! Dave
