[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by ouengr</i> <br /><br />Over the past several years it seems to me that there has been a dramatic shift in the way that HO modelers view Kato. When the Kato SD40-2 was first announced, I bought all of them that I could afford. Since then I have purchased upwards of 20 Katos. During the past couple of years, I have sold nearly all of them in favor of locomotives by Atlas Master, P2k, and others. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />The real thing about Kato that I like is that they run great. I can appreciate your comments that Kato has not upgraded their products like Atlas and Proto as far as detail. They also made some poor choices of models at least for me to run if they wanted a large amount of sales. <br /> <br /> Kato overall has been a good model and like any product, it needs to get more detailed to be competitive.
