Anyone else have a problem with Kalmbach?

.

I do not. I am afraid this thread will be locked now. Too bad, it was going pretty well.

.

I hope Dana keeps inserting these each month.

This thread will get locked for sure, now! Laugh

TheK4Kid,  does it say anywhere in these forums that this is the place to go for customer service ?

Gary Hoover's beautiful AT&SF layout was featured several times in MR. I look forward to seeing his take on the N&W.

These threads usually get locked right away.  I agree with Mike, those preview of this layout looked exceptional.

Pretty much last week of the month, typically when they ship out the next issue.

Why so early?  Isn't this still the middle of February?

rrinker
but on the 60's TV show with Bruce Lee, it was "kay-toe"

.

It is also "Kay-Toe" in the Green Hornet, Pink Panther, and the OJ Simpson Trial.

.

I wonder how many others are always mispronounced. There was an importer of brass models named "Akane", that I have heard pronounced every way you can imagine.

 There was an article many years ago in MR (in the 80's I think) where they visited with the younger Mr. Kato who was at the time just setting up Kato USA under the direction of his father. It was in that article that they mentioned the correct pronounciation of the name. Not sure how it was pronounced on the original Green Hornet radio serials, but on the 60's TV show with Bruce Lee, it was "kay-toe" which probbaly influenced many on how to pronounce the name of the model train company.

Brace yourselves.

.

I really hope when the forum gets an upgrade that there will be a minimum word requirtement for replies, 15-20 is common, to prevent these cryptic posts that have no real content.

.

Interesting thing about the video... I have been mispronouncing "Kato" for 30+ years. I always assumed it was "Kay-Toe", but apparently not.

.

The NORFOLK AND SOUTHERN layout looks truly amazing.
