If you think that the hobby has become to expensive for the youth market, check out the price of an I-Pod. Even the least expensive, no display, random play unit is $100 . However no assembly is required of the unit, only seven trips to the store to find out how to get "something" loaded into it. <br />The good news is that the "baby boomers" in the hobby have grand kids to pass on the hobby to. The market palce will dictate whether the rocco's will go away or the Athearns and Life Likes will continue to manufacture product within a different corporate structure. Sounds like "Blue Boxes" are coming back into stock this fall as the product works its way through manufacturing packaging and distribution. May we "live in interesting times". <br />Will
