I guess she didn't realize how stupid she sounds there. Just because you build a model of the to use as a representation doesn't mean that you are truely influencing anyone. If anything, you are helping them make a better informed decision because they have something to look at. Unless she got a real good lawyer, or the judge isn't the sharpest lightbulb in the Pop-Tart box, I don't see how it would fly. And because you did it voluntarily backs you up more; you are in no way affiliated with the town. <br /> <br />They are probably complain now. They now have to pay out the butt for gas, when they could have easily commuted on the train. Tisk tisk tisk. <br /> <br />Do you have any pictures of the diorama? <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />You should have seen the diorama TrainFreak409. It included everything I could think of that I felt people would have questions about. The train itself was on an elivated right of way with openings in it every so often to allow cattle to cross over from pasture to pasture and for farmers to get their tractors and equipment through. There was an overpass going over the tracks for automobiles. I even included a little town with kids playing in a park. The woman that threatened to include me in the law suit said that I made it all look oh so simple as if it would fit right in and be accepted by everyone-except her... She was a real witch. One guy even told me that he thought about taking his foot and kicking the display off its pedistal, but was afraid that he might go to jail for it, which was his only reason for not doing so. <br /> <br />Tracklayer <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />You sure you weren't at the Dome in New Orleans, sounds like about the same fantical (sp) reaction. Are you still looking to support the proposed rail project? I hope so. Are there any other backers to the plan?
