Just learn to go with the times and not live in the past. Change is a constant.

If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.

Yes, change is a constant. It's just a confusing change is all. Why didn't you reply within the topic instead of starting a new one?

I get moving old products down from the high-end line as new high-end products outclass them. It was shifting products up and down around 3 different lines that got confusing is all. The only other time I can think of products moving up (right off hand) was with some of Bachmann's old tooling becoming Plus and Spectrum, but those changes came with major upgrades.

There has been an upgrade to the latest release of the GP40-2.  The locomotive now has directional lighting and the crew fryer is gone.  I can also say that it runs much smoother than the ones I purchased a few years ago.
